The State and Homeland Security Departments said the United States will require travelers from Canada Mexico and other allied nations to present a passport or secure alternative documents to enter the country. The new rules push back start dates to December 31 2006 for air and sea travelers and December 31 2007 for land crossings with Canada and Mexico. Travelers face costs and a future cheaper option is sought for land entries. President Bush ordered a review after the April plan announcement.
