You will typically receive your Aruba ED Card approval within minutes to a few hours after submission, although travelers should allow at least 24 hours for processing.
What You Need to Know
Processing times for the Aruba ED Card can vary depending on application volumes, public holidays, or whether additional information is required by the authorities. While many applications are approved quickly, some may take longer for review.
With sherpa°, you can apply at any time before your trip. We’ll make sure your application is submitted at the appropriate time and monitor your application for updates throughout the process.
Travelers should allow a minimum of 24 hours before departure for processing, even if approvals are often issued sooner.
Our Recommendation
We recommend applying at least a few days before your departure to allow extra time in case of delays or additional review. If you apply early through sherpa°, we can securely hold your application and submit it at the correct time based on Aruba’s application window requirements.
Applying early can help avoid unnecessary stress before travel.
A Quick Tip
Make sure all information in your application matches your passport and travel details exactly. Missing or incorrect information can cause processing delays or require additional review.
