How much are taxes, fees and port expenses on a cruise?

Taxes, fees and port expenses vary by sailing and are based on several different factors. Guests can always view the most up to date pricing including taxes, fees and port expenses on our website.

Cruising to Mexico:

The Government of Mexico now requires us to collect a Mexico Non-Resident tax for all voyages that call on a port in Mexico on or after July 1, 2025. Guests who book on or after June 1, 2025 will have this new tax included in the ‘taxes and fees’ portion of their fare. Guests booked before June 1, 2025 will see this new tax charged to their SeaPass account onboard.

Some guests may be exempt from the new tax based on their country of residence, or their recent travel history. In a few cases, certain local regulations may prohibit our ability to retroactively collect this new tax.

If you’ve sailed on a cruise to Mexico recently and believe you should you be exempt from paying the Non-Resident tax, please contact us.
