what is the passport card good for
1 The Passport Card can be used on cruises to the Caribbean and Bermuda, in addition to land border crossings to Canada and Mexico.  The US State Department started accepting applications for the Passport Card on February 1st, 2008.
That means there are only two basic uses for the U.S. passport card; â¢ Driving between the U.S. and Canada, or between the US and Mexico, and. â¢ Taking a cruise from the U.S. to Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, and/or many Caribbean island nations and back.
