If your arrival at Key West is less than 24 hours from embarkation, you must send a preliminary NOA for the arrival into Key West. Once your manifests are complete after embarkation, then you need to send an updated e-NOA which includes the pax/crew manifests. The COTP (Captain of the Port) Zone entry should read "Sector Key West". 24 hour POC should be "Caribe Nautical" and phone "305-294-3288".

This is a general list of the paperwork and documents required when arriving at the Port of Key West directly from another US port. Please send us a copy of your complete itinerary which will enable us to send you specific requirements detailed to your particular cruise.
