How to Get More Royal Caribbean Luggage Tags

Get more Royal Caribbean luggage tags by printing additional copies of the stateroom-specific tag in your Royal guest document (eDocs); if you need a non-stateroom-specific label, ask for a generic bag tag, and ask a porter at the pier if you forgot your tags on boarding day. The tag issued for your cruise is tied to your ship, sailing date, stateroom, and deck, so an extra copy should match your current cruise documents. Printing before you travel is the easiest way to avoid delays at the terminal.

What Royal Caribbean Luggage Tags Are For

Royal Caribbean uses luggage tags to identify bags that you hand over at the cruise terminal for delivery aboard the ship. The tag in your Royal guest document (eDocs – electronic document) is specific to your sailing and cabin assignment.

Royal Caribbean distinguishes between the stateroom-specific bag tag in your eDocs and generic bag tags. That distinction matters when you are asking for “more tags.”

The right extra tag is usually another printed copy of your current eDocs tag, not a homemade label that only has your name and cabin number.

A homemade identification label can still be useful inside your suitcase in case the exterior tag is damaged, but it is not the same as the issued Royal Caribbean bag tag.

The Reliable Way to Get Extra Tags

Choose the route that matches why you need another tag before you print or ask for one.

Your Situation	Best Option	What to Do
You have another suitcase to hand to the porter	Print another eDocs bag tag	Use the stateroom-specific tag for your current sailing.
You need an extra label that is not meant to be tied to a particular stateroom	Request a generic bag tag	Specify that you need a generic bag tag, not another eDocs cabin tag.
You forgot printed tags at home	Ask a porter at the pier	Request a ship luggage tag before handing over your bag.
Your ship, sailing date, or cabin changed	Get the current eDocs tag	Do not use an older printed tag with outdated details.

Step 1: Open Your Royal Guest Document

Locate the Royal guest document issued for your reservation, also called your eDocs.
Find the luggage-tag section within that document.
If you cannot access the document, contact Royal Caribbean through the support option connected with your booking before you leave for the port.

The eDocs bag tag is the starting point because it is assigned to the ship, sailing date, stateroom, and deck for your reservation.

Step 2: Confirm the Tag Matches Your Current Booking

Check the ship name and sailing date.
Check the stateroom number and deck number.
If any of those details differ from your reservation confirmation, stop and retrieve an updated eDocs document instead of printing the old tag.

This is especially important after a cabin reassignment, a ship change, or a changed departure date. A tag printed for an earlier reservation may still look valid at a glance while directing the bag using the wrong information.

Step 3: Print One Tag for Each Bag You Will Hand Over

Print one stateroom-specific bag tag for every suitcase, duffel, or other bag that will be given to the pier porter.

Count the bags you plan to check with the port staff.
Print that many copies of the appropriate eDocs tag.
Keep the document open until you have confirmed that every bag has a tag.
Fold and fasten each tag to the bag handle using the instructions printed on the tag itself.

A carry-on bag that stays with you does not need a pier luggage tag.

Step 4: Inspect the Tags Before You Leave for the Port

Finish by checking each tagged bag as if you were the person trying to identify it quickly at the terminal.

Make sure the printed ship, sailing date, stateroom, and deck information can be read.
Confirm that the tag is securely attached to the correct bag handle.
Put important items you need during embarkation, such as travel documents, valuables, and medications, in your carry-on rather than in a bag being handed to port staff.
Save a digital copy of your eDocs where you can access it while traveling, in case you need to verify your cabin information at the terminal.

When an Extra Printed Copy Is Not the Answer

A generic bag tag, a ship luggage tag from Porters, or a current tag may be needed instead of another eDocs copy.

When You Need a Generic Bag Tag

A generic bag tag is a separate category from the cabin-specific tag included in eDocs.

Ask for another eDocs stateroom-specific tag when you have another checked bag going to your cabin.
Ask for a generic bag tag when you need a general-use luggage label rather than another cabin-assigned tag.

When You Forgot Your Tags at Home

If your bags are packed and you arrive at the terminal without your printed tags, ask the Porters at the pier for ship luggage tags before you hand over your luggage. Have your booking details available so you can provide your ship and stateroom information if needed.

This is a useful backup, not the preferred plan. Printing your tags from eDocs ahead of time gives you time to check the cabin details and attach them securely without holding up your boarding routine.

When Your Cabin Assignment Changed

Open the current Royal guest document and print the current tag for each bag you will check.

How Many Royal Caribbean Luggage Tags You Need

Plan on one luggage tag for each bag that you hand to the pier porter. If you have two checked suitcases and one carry-on that stays with you, print two tags.

If several people are staying in the same stateroom, each bag handed over still needs its own tag. If members of your party are assigned to different cabins, use the tag that matches the cabin where each bag should be delivered.

You do not need to place multiple Royal Caribbean tags on the same suitcase just because you printed extras. An extra copy is best kept as a replacement in your travel papers until you know every checked bag is tagged.

Check Your Tags Before Leaving Home

Use this short check after you print your luggage tags:

Each checked bag has one attached Royal Caribbean tag.
The tag shows the correct ship and sailing date.
The stateroom and deck match your current booking.
The tag is fastened securely to the bag handle.
Your eDocs are saved or available on your phone as a backup.
Your carry-on holds the items you need before your checked bags arrive at your cabin.

This quick check is also the easiest way to spot whether you need more printed copies before you start traveling to the terminal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make my own luggage tag for Royal Caribbean?

You can print your own copy of the issued Royal Caribbean eDocs luggage tag, but you should not replace it with a handwritten or homemade look-alike. The issued tag identifies the ship, sailing date, stateroom, and deck number assigned to your cruise. A personal name-and-address tag can be added for identification, but it is not a substitute for the official cruise tag.

Where Is the Best Place to Print Royal Caribbean Luggage Tags?

Printing at home before you leave is the most convenient option because you can check that every checked bag has the correct stateroom-specific tag. You can use any printer that produces a complete, readable copy of the eDocs tag. Have tags secured before you arrive at the pier.

Can I Get Royal Caribbean Luggage Tags at Port Canaveral?

If you forgot your printed tags, ask the Porters at the pier on boarding day for ship luggage tags. The published guidance does not describe a separate luggage-tag pickup process just for Port Canaveral.

How Do I Request Generic Bag Tags?

When contacting Royal Caribbean for additional labels, say that you need a generic bag tag rather than another eDocs tag.
