Announcement from Noonsite:
Planning your next port of call? Make it smoother from the start.
April has been a busy and exciting month for the Noonsite team as we’ve put the final touches on a brand-new product designed specifically for cruising life. Created to simplify formalities and streamline onboard organisation, our new formalities wallet helps you check in and out of countries with ease and confidence. Designed and tested by experienced liveaboard cruisers, it’s a practical solution born from real-world needs.
Previously available only to our members, we’re now opening this up to everyone.
To celebrate, we’re offering this high-quality wallet free to cruisers who sign up for our Premium annual membership - available now for those preparing for extended voyages and looking for extra support and security along the way. You’ll find full details of this special offer, along with all the benefits of Premium, below.

As you set your course for new horizons this season, make sure you’re equipped to focus on the journey - not the paperwork.

Noonsite
Hi all,
It has been a few years since we have been to a new country, but over the last 20+ years, Alchemy has taken us to 55 countries and Noonsite has been one of the research sources that has enabled our entry to these nations to go smoothly.
Noonsite has also felt like a resource that fits with the cruising community I like to be part of: one where is everybody sharing information and helping each other.
So, a couple of thoughts:
I was, at first, a little disappointed that Noonsite appeared to be turning itself into a commercial entity (it sounds now, like it always had a commercial aspect and I was unaware).
I guess I am also not sure that I am comfortable with what looks like, to me, essentially an advertisement being copied and pasted (and yes, I know, it was an “announcement”) and put in the OCC Forum (or any advertisement being baldly posted on the Forum for that matter). Best would be a member using this new fee-demanding aspect of Noonsite and giving a field report of the accuracy of this “formalities wallet”, whether it was helpful and whether it was considered, by the member, to be worth the money. Next best might be a member saying why he/she thought this might be a worthwhile service to consider and why.
I would also be curious/concerned that this shift to a commercial emphasis/formality’s wallet might “water down” the freely available information to boost the appeal of their commercial interests: resulting in important formality information now being behind a pay-wall.
My best, Dick Stevenson, s/v AlchemyGeorge.Curtis wrote:
