1Overview
The Sint Maarten ED Card (Electronic Embarkation-Disembarkation Card) is a digital registration for arrivals and departures by air under the Admission Decree. It is not a visa and does not grant a right of entry.
Nothing is stamped in the passport; a digital registration confirmation is issued for each trip.

- Same-day cruise visitors are exempt.
