Passport Heads-Up
Currently when you go to Mexico and Canada, all you need is a birth certificate or photo ID. As of January 7 next year, travel into both of these countries will require a passport. Since it can take up to eight weeks to get a passport, it is a good idea to get one now if you don’t have one already.

Just wanted to fill out the details on this new regulation a bit. Passports will be required to enter the U.S. from Canada, Mexico, and the Carribbean by air starting in January (on the 8th according to the State Department), but not by land or sea (ferries and cruise ships). Passports will eventually be required for all modes of entry. The blanket regulation is currently slated come into effect somewhere between January 1, 2008 and June 1, 2009.
