Uplay passport with game bought new

Good afternoon, I purchased on 02/07/2013 Assassin's Creed III directly from marketplace.xbox.com (I'm just playing now) and I was wondering if it is normal that I should buy the Uplay Passport for play online? should be together to the game bought new?

It's usually a code card that comes in the package when bought in store. Sometimes DL versions require online passes purchased separately.

Try accessing online features. If you can't, then you need to purchase the passport.
