For the hotel address section on the Aruba ED Card, enter the full Aruba address of your accommodation — including the property name, street address, building number (NR), and district. This is your Aruba hotel or rental address, not your home address. For chain hotels, use the address from your booking confirmation. For Airbnb or private rentals, select “Vacation Rental” or “Private Home” and enter the property address manually.
Why the Accommodation Address Matters on the ED Card
The Aruba immigration authorities use the accommodation address to verify where you will be staying during your visit. It is a mandatory section of the ED Card form. An incomplete or incorrect accommodation address may cause issues with your application or raise questions at the immigration desk.
The accommodation address you provide on your ED Card should match the address on your hotel or rental booking confirmation. If you have not yet confirmed your accommodation, you must do so before filling out the ED Card.
How to Find Your Hotel’s Aruba Address
Your hotel’s Aruba address can be found in several places:
- Booking confirmation email — most reliable source
- Hotel website — usually listed in the “Contact” or “Location” section
- Google Maps — search for your hotel name in Aruba to get the full address
- Booking.com, Expedia, or Airbnb listing — address is shown on the property page
Aruba addresses typically include a street name, building number, and district (e.g., Noord, Palm Beach, Eagle Beach, Oranjestad). Example: Palm Beach 1, Noord, Aruba.
Filling in Hotel Address: NR, Letter, Street, City Fields
The accommodation address section on the ED Card uses the same sub-fields as the home address section:
| Field | What to Enter for Your Hotel | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Property Name | Name of your hotel or resort | Marriott Aruba Resort |
| NR | Building/property number on the street | 101 |
| Letter / Suffix | Unit letter if applicable (leave blank for most hotels) | A (or leave blank) |
| Street | Street name in Aruba | L.G. Smith Boulevard |
| District / City | Aruba district or area | Palm Beach, Noord, Oranjestad |
| Accommodation Type | Hotel, Apartment, Private Home, Vacation Rental | Hotel |
Room numbers are not required — the building address is sufficient. If your hotel does not have a specific street number, enter the property name and district.
Airbnb and Vacation Rental Address
For Airbnb stays or vacation rentals in Aruba:
- Select “Vacation Rental” or “Private Home” as accommodation type
- Enter the full address of the rental property as listed on Airbnb
- Find the address on the Airbnb listing page or in your booking confirmation
- If the exact address is provided only after booking, confirm your booking before filling out the ED Card
Airbnb provides full addresses after booking is confirmed — do not guess or estimate the address.
Staying at a Private Home in Aruba
If you are staying with friends or family at a private residence in Aruba:
- Select “Private Home” as accommodation type
- Enter the full street address of the home where you will be staying
- Confirm the address with your host before filling out the ED Card
The address must be a real, verifiable address in Aruba. Do not enter a hotel address if you are actually staying in a private home.
Changing Hotels During Your Stay: Which Address to Use?
If your trip involves multiple accommodations in Aruba, enter the address of your first accommodation. You do not need to list all planned stays. The ED Card requires a primary accommodation address where you will be upon arrival.
What If You Don’t Know Your Hotel Address Yet?
The ED Card should be submitted only after your accommodation is confirmed. If you do not yet have a hotel booking, do not submit the ED Card — come back when you have a confirmed address. Submitting with an incorrect or placeholder address can create problems during border control.
Remember: The ED Card window opens 7 days before your arrival. You have time to finalize accommodation and then submit.
