Hi Ya
Noonsite was such a centre of knowledge for me and other cruisers , they have updated it and about 10% of the original information is on there , I sailed into Tonga not knowing they had changed the entry system with an early notice of arrival form , thankfully had a nice customs guy that wasn’t bothered ... anyone know what’s going on with Noonsite ? ...

Looks OK to me.. https://www.noonsite.com/place/tonga/formalities/

I can only really judge by looking at my stamping ground - Chile- and that is all as it should be.

I must admit that the 'discover xxxx' button is a bit misleading ... one expects ads for guided tours to the local temples...

Takes a little time to get used to new layout but don't forget - it is only as good as the info that cruisers feed to it....
I trust that you contribute as you sail from country to country :encouragement:
 
Software platform changes happened, turning a dated looking, but functional website into one with silly gimmicks and very poor usability. As far as I can tell, everything is still there, but it's much more difficult to discover, information being hidden under collapsed sections and navigation under a hamburger menu.

Hope some sanity will be restored soon, as Noonsite was always a highly useful tool to cruisers.
 
New layout is pretty simple.... select country... gives overview...select 'formalities' or 'general info' or whatever you want...
Doesn't get much simpler than that.....

There was maybe a 2 week changeover period (beginning of May?) where things may have been a bit messy...

It is a lot simpler now to send them updates....and they are acted on promptly

Edit...NB... the old site is not being updated....
