I have a German friend who plans to take a trip to the US this summer.
She will visit her friends in Montreal first. After a week or two, she plans
to ride Amtrak from Montreal to New York City.
When the train crosses the US/Canada border, how do they handle
immigration & customs? As a German citizen, she doesn't need a visa
to visit the US, but I imagine that it's a little more complicated than the
process for US & Canadian citizens, no?
Last but not least, does the train wait until every passenger has cleared
immigration before it leaves from the checkpoint?
Any advice appreciated!
