Nope..It is exactly what the card was designed for. Use mine all the time. As long as you don't ply into Beef Island you are all good.

Also when are you traveling. Wife renewed her Passport and received it in 3 weeks. Save you money on expediting.

Have done it last few times with no problems. Its what the card was made for. Boat into the Caribbean or drive, boat or walk into Mexico and Canada.

I also have GOES card for quick customs check and TSA Pre-Check. Best $100 I have spent for a 5 year card.

Steve have you tried entering the BVI via boat with just a passport card? BVI C&I love to stamp passports and might be disappointed if you gave them a card. You're correct. The BVI C&I love the rubber stamp and to write in the return date, and won't know where to place the white departure card. That's my concern.

Yes that’s what I thought. But when you said as long as you don’t fly Into Beef Island I assumed they wouldn’t accept it. I said that because the card is not authorized if your flying. You need an actual Passport if you ever fly to another country. Soon you will need a Passport to even fly domestic in the USA until you get the new Federally approved Driver's License when they are available in each state.
