Tangerine's Account Manager Tips:
Credit Card Edition
An expired credit card in a corporate or personal travel profile prevents Tangerine Travel from processing travel arrangements. This can lead to cancellations and increased costs for airline tickets, hotel confirmation and other travel quotes. Airline tickets and hotel confirmations cannot be guaranteed without a valid credit card.

Credit card companies and banks typically issue new cards 30-60 days prior to card expiration date. (Credit cards expire on the last day of the month noted on the credit card).

Helpful tip: We recommend you set a reminder to update your profile prior to credit card expiration to avoid costly delays and last-minute hassles.

Select your travel agent, account manager or other (if you don’t know) in the dropdown list labeled “Tangerine Travel Employee Receiving This Form.” We’ll make sure the profile is updated right away.

Passport Processing Updates and Current Time
Processing times have changed several times in the last few months. As of March 24, we are processing routine applications in 10-13 weeks, and expedited applications in 7-9 weeks.

Processing times fluctuate throughout the year depending on demand and we anticipate that they will rise, especially as we approach the busier travel season.
U.S. to End International Inbound Vaccine Requirement
The Covid-19 vaccine requirement for inbound international travelers to the U.S. will end after May 11, the White House announced.

The date coincides with the Biden administration's scheduled end of the Covid-19 public health emergency and also marks the end of the vaccine requirement for federal employees and contractors, according to a White House announcement.
U.S. Travel Association president and CEO Geoff Freeman in a statement said the end of the requirement "eases a significant entry barrier for many global travelers, moving our industry and country forward."

The White House said the Health and Human Service and Homeland Security departments also are ending vaccine requirements for noncitizen arrivals at U.S. ports and land borders.
