Tips for United Kingdom travelers

  • Always confirm the exact number of days stamped in your passport on arrival, as it may be less than the maximum 180 days
  • Carry proof of onward travel, especially if arriving by inter-island ferry from a neighbouring Caribbean nation
  • Register any extension request well ahead of the stamped expiry date
  • The British High Commission in Barbados provides consular support for Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
  • Check ferry and flight schedules carefully if island-hopping, as inter-island transport can be infrequent
