Aruba ED Card
Mandatory digital embarkation/disembarkation form for every traveler, including infants. It’s for a single entry and must be completed within 7 days before arrival. It’s valid until the flight on which you arrive.
Your typical permitted stay is up to 30 days per visit (maximum 180 days per calendar year).
To complete the form, you’ll need:
- 🛂 Passport: Valid for the entire stay (6 months recommended).
- 🛬 Return/onward ticket: You must show you have tickets back to your home country.
- 🏠 Accommodation details: Confirmation of where you’ll be staying.
- 🩺 Basic health information & US$20 sustainability fee: (paid online).
Aruba One Happy Workation Program*
Aruba’s One Happy Workation program allows remote workers, especially from the US, Canada, the UK, and Schengen countries, to live and work remotely in Aruba for up to 90 days without needing a traditional work visa.
You’ll need a valid passport, return ticket, proof of remote employment, travel insurance, and at least $5,000 in available funds. You can’t work for Aruba companies, and extensions beyond 90 days aren’t allowed under this scheme. The program includes access to discounted stays and doesn’t require extra paperwork beyond the standard ED Card and $20 tourism fee.
*When completing the mandatory ED Card online, simply choose “Workation” as your reason for travel.
Caribbean Short-Stay Visa (Aruba Visitor Visa)*
This visa is valid for Aruba and the other Caribbean parts of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (Bonaire, Curaçao, Saba, St. Eustatius, and St. Maarten). You can choose from a tourist, business, student, or family and friends visit visa.
It’s meant for nationals who aren’t visa-exempt and allows stays of up to 90 days in a 180-day period. Processing usually takes up to 15 calendar days.
*We currently don’t offer the Caribbean Short-Stay Visa (Aruba Visitor Visa), but it’s available via the Dutch government.
