    Can I use photocopies or scans of our birth certificates (both adult and child) at Port Check in or do I need certified state copies with the raised seal?

    Welcome to planDisney, Michelle!  It's almost time to sail away on Disney Cruise Line, but I'm glad you sailed by planDisney first with your question. 

    US Citizens (including children) need an original or copy of their state-issued birth certificate and a physical Government photo ID (digital/mobile state-issued IDs are not acceptable to sail).  Children 15 years of age and younger do not need to present a Government-issued photo ID.  That being said, you can print a scanned copy or photocopy your state-issued birth certificate to present at the port.  You will need to keep those documents with you in your carry-on luggage and not place them in your checked bags so you will have them ready to present at the port.   

    Remember to download the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app before you board the Disney Wish.   This will help you navigate all of the onboard activities once you step onboard and connect to the DCL-GUEST wireless network.  You will also be able to chat with family and friends on the same sailing through the app's chat feature.

    I hope you have a safe, magical cruise, Michelle.  If you have any other questions, come back to visit us at planDisney.

    Bon Voyage!
