Entry documents
World Cup 2026 entry documents and insurance
A match ticket does not replace immigration rules. Fans crossing between the USA, Canada and Mexico should check entry documents and insurance coverage before locking a multi-country route.
Document and insurance checklist
- Check passport validity for every country on the route.
- Confirm visa, ESTA, eTA or other entry permissions if required.
- Make sure travel insurance covers every host country you visit.
- Save policy numbers, emergency contacts and accommodation addresses offline.
- Do not assume a ticket guarantees entry into any host country.
