Factual error: Ziva shows McGee her passport including her passport photo. In the photo she is smiling broadly. Regulations state that a passport photo must be a neutral facial expression. This photo would have been rejected. (00:01:50)

31st Aug 2006
Continuity mistake: When Jack "intuitively" inquires about Elizabeth's feelings, the dangling beads in his hair are over his dreadlocks, near his shoulder. Next close-up they're tucked under his hair. This type of thing - with all the do-dads in Jack's hair - occurs numerous times throughout the film. (01:35:20)
22nd Jul 2008
Continuity mistake: After Jack explains the legend of Davy Jones to Elizabeth, and they have found their heading, Elizabeth's braid is going down her back. When Jack points Elizabeth toward the ship her braid is now on her right shoulder. She doesn't move her head and there is not enough time for her to move it herself. (01:17:00)
12th Jul 2006
Continuity mistake: After Jack has escaped from the island where he was going to be burned, the makeup on his face (the eyes) changes between scenes. The makeup has faded quite considerably when he first boards the Black Pearl then in a later scene the makeup is neater and clearer. (00:42:30)
14th Sep 2006
Continuity mistake: Aboard the Flying Dutchman, when Will sneaks in to steal the key, as the shot draws closer to Jones the quills are shown on the organ keys - with one leaning over the keys.

12th Jul 2006
Continuity mistake: In the scene where the two sailors have found Jack's hat in the water, they try it on in turn. When the second man tried it on, the hat changes position between shots, with no time for him to move it. In one shot, one of the corners is facing front, in the next shot a flat side is facing the front. (00:17:50)
11th Dec 2006
Continuity mistake: When trying to flee, Norrington falls and drops his sword and the chest. As he crawls in the first shot, note the sword's hilt and particularly the hand guard, with its wide part facing up. In the next shot the direction of the hand guard has changed, with its wide part now facing the ground (this has nothing to do with camera angle). (01:58:45)
13th Jul 2006
Continuity mistake: When Pintel and Ragetti argue over the pronunciation of "Kraken" while they're rowing, the loose end of Jack's red bandanna changes position and jumps from his back to over his shoulder, between shots more than once. (01:38:30)
