Travelers arriving in Newark from international destinations will first have to go through customs before being able to access their bags and exit. Customs forms should always be filled out clearly and correctly and travelers need a valid passport.
For international travelers, baggage claim is just on the other side of customs. International travelers who have a final destination in the United States other than Newark will still have to claim their baggage at customs before changing flights. For domestic travelers, each terminal has its own baggage claim area that will be clearly marked.
Newark Liberty International Airport offers various methods of ground transportation for leaving the airport, including car rentals, taxi and van service, the 24-hour AirTrain railway system, and access to public transportation such the New Jersey Transit railway service.
