People travelling off the Isle of Man or arriving from other jurisdictions are being reminded to ensure their personal details and travel documents are up to date.
The reminder comes as new UK entry requirements approach and some carriers tighten their identification rules.
Travel within the Common Travel Area (CTA) remains unchanged, with no legal requirement to carry ID when moving between the Isle of Man, UK, Ireland and the Channel Islands.
However, passengers must still meet the identification rules set by their carrier, and some airlines now require passports even for CTA journeys.
Changes to Travel Rules
From February 25, the UK will begin enforcing its Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) scheme for visitors from Europe, the USA, Australia, Canada and several other countries.
British and Irish passport holders, and those with an existing immigration status to live, work or study in the Isle of Man or UK, do not need an ETA.
Travellers from countries requiring an ETA will be asked by carriers to show proof before being allowed to board.
Manx Changes
The Isle of Man will introduce its own corresponding ETA scheme in due course.
Officials are also reminding dual nationals to travel using either a valid British or Irish passport, or another passport accompanied by a certificate of entitlement.
Those holding an Isle of Man immigration status must ensure they carry any relevant documentation, such as visa vignettes, stamps or status letters.
Anyone who has changed their personal details or travel document since their last immigration permission is advised to contact the Immigration Service to update their records.
