Fill out the form
A completed visa allows you to enter, stay and leave Barbados without any problems. Obtaining a Barbados Visitor's Visa doesn't have to be difficult or time-consuming. The application form is short and easy to understand; it can be completed in less than 10 minutes. All you need are basic personal details such as your name, address, date of birth, nationality and passport information. Once complete, print out the form and present it at the airport when you arrive in Barbados for processing by immigration officers.
Gather all the required Documents
The first document needed will be a valid passport with an expiry date far beyond the length of your stay in Barbados. In addition, visitors may also be required to provide evidence of financial stability and proof that they are able to cover all costs associated with their trip. This could include bank statements as well as booking confirmations for accommodation and flights. If travelling for business purposes, applicants may need additional paperwork, such as an invitation letter from the company being visited. Other documents, including medical certificates and police records, may also need to be supplied depending on individual circumstances.
Pay the visa fee
The most common type of Visa for Barbados is a short-term tourist visa, which allows travellers to remain in the country for up to six months at a time. For this type of Visa, applicants must pay $75USD as part of their application fee. Other types of visas, such as student or business visas, may also require different amounts, so individuals must check with the local embassy or consulate before submitting their application.
Set an appointment
To begin setting an appointment for a visa to Barbados, go online and fill out the application form on their website. Provide all necessary details such as name, address and contact information. Once this form has been completed, you will need to pay any associated fees before receiving confirmation of your appointment date.
Submit the application form
First, check if your country requires you to have a visa before travelling. If so, then determine which type of Visa you need for your trip--a tourist or business visa? Each one has different requirements and documents needed before submitting your application form. Once you know what type of Visa is necessary for your travels, complete the online application form from the embassy website and print two copies of it out.
Wait till it's done
The Barbados government requires visitors from certain countries to obtain a visa prior to their arrival. This includes but is not limited to citizens from non-Commonwealth countries, nationals from non-CARICOM member states, or any other visitor who does not fall under one of the categories listed by the Barbados Immigration Department.
