* I spoke with a US Customs agent in Hampton Roads, VA about two months ago and asked him about the details of returning to the States after visiting foreign waters. According to him - and his partner, who was standing right there, did not contradict him - you do not need a passport, and a US DL is perfectly fine.
*That's true only if you're coming from a US Territory like PR or the VI or you're on a cruise where you don't visit a third country. 1. If you arrive by air, everyone needs a passport. 2. If you're coming from Canada, Mexico, Bermuda or the Caribbean by land (Don't know how to do that from Bermuda or the Caribbean) you need a passport, a passport card, or a enhanced DL certified secure (so far only issued by Michigan, New York, Vermont and Washington). 3. Coming in by boat from the aforementioned countries, you need the same as by land. Any other countries, you need a passport.
