Learn More: ED Card

This content was updated in October 2023

The Aruba tourism authority has opened its borders for tourists to travel and visit the island. But, all tourists arriving in Aruba will have to fill out an online embarkation/disembarkation card, which the Aruban government must approve in order to be allowed entry.

The name Aruba online ED-Card means that it is an official Aruba embarkation-disembarkation card and is a mandatory form that all visitors to Aruba must complete. However, we know that this procedure can become tedious. That is why iVisa.com has created an easy application form to help you quickly obtain the travel document.

You only need to contact one of our experts, and you can even apply in advance to alleviate stress and have no problems traveling.

What is the Aruba ED Card?

This new travel form must be completed for nationals and foreigners to enter Aruba. This online application form will allow government officials to manage the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and reduce contagions.

The document Aruba ED Card is also known as the Aruba Embarkation and Disembarkation Card because, in the past, tourists were required to fill out this paper card with traveler information upon arrival in the country. However, it has since been completely digitized and is an essential process that all visitors spending more than 24 hours in Aruba must follow before traveling to Aruba.

You must request the travel document at least 7 days before your arrival date.

On the other hand, all the legends are true about the weather. Aruba has perfect weather 365 days a year. It has no seasons and being in a privileged area of the Caribbean, its climate is warm, with a temperature ranging between 25 and 28 degrees Celsius.

The people of Aruba are open, multicultural, and full of history; more than 90 cultural representations coexist on the island, so they have learned to adapt easily to the differences. During your vacation in Aruba, you will feel at home.

You should definitely visit Aruba and enjoy a wonderful beach vacation like Eagle Beach.
