Authorisation system
Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) and ED form
All visitors need an approved Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) before travelling, requested on the official border management portal or its app. The eTA authorises travel to the country, but it is not a visa and does not guarantee entry. Citizens and residents of the country and citizens of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) do not need one; they only complete the free electronic immigration and customs (ED) form. Travellers who need a visa still need it. Anyone arriving by sea must notify the port authority 24 hours ahead. Extensions of stay are requested and paid for at the Immigration Department.
