The collecting basics

A few stamp questions.

What is a national park passport stamp?

A cancellation stamp is an ink impression that records the park and your visit date. Collectors add these to a passport book as a keepsake of their travels.

Read the NPS guidance

Are the ink stamps free?

The cancellation stamps are free. A passport book is a separate purchase, and normal park admission or other visit costs may still apply.

Where should I look for a stamp?

What if I forgot my passport book?

Bring a small piece of paper to collect the ink impression and add it to your book later. Some parks also publish printable stamps; check the individual park's website for its options.
