Steps:
1. Preregister for a visitor’s pass through Ft Bragg’s online pre-registration
system:
2. Go to one of the Visitor Control Centers and complete the registration.
These Centers are at the Ft Knox and All American gates.
3. Here are some important facts about entering the military base.
 All adults in vehicle and occupants 17 years or older must have a valid
identification – driver’s license, passport, military ID. You will not be
allowed on base without it.
 Foreign Visitor (Any person other than a US citizen) must present a valid
passport with visa, and I-94 (Arrival /Departure Record) or an alien
resident identification card and must have a valid reason to enter the
installation.
 All car registrations must be valid and current. You will not be allowed on
base if they are not.
 You will probably have to step out of your vehicle and open all doors and
trunk for inspections. All bags may be searched. To answer a frequent
question: Yes - you may bring coolers and adults over 21 may bring
alcohol onto base.
 Do not bring weapons onto base unless you are going to specific firing
range.
 Speed limits on base need to be observed at all times. They are very
serious about speed limits and remember the MPs are usually 18-19 year
old kids!
Huge note – GPS often do not work or give misleading instructions on military
bases. Print out this map and take with you. The image is also on the Cleland
