BORDER CROSSING
Immigration regulations require that each person be inspected when crossing the border between the United States and Canada. Specific forms of identification are required at all land border crossings. For increased security at U.S. borders, the U.S. government is now enforcing new passport requirements for all travellers entering or re-entering the United States from Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Carribean, and Bermuda.
Regulations regarding exemptions and restrictions for belongings or merchandise brought into across the international border exist. There are certain variable restrictions for taking alcohol, tobacco products, certain foods, etc. across the border. Please be prepared to declare all belongings and show receipts for purchases when reporting to border agents for entry. Immigration and customs requirements are subject to change without notice.
