Travel Documents - Visitors must have a return
or onward ticket, or other proof on onward travel in order to enter
Bermuda. One-way ticket holders could find themselves heading back
to their origin before they ever leave the airport immigration
area. A driver's license and/or birth certificate is NOT an
acceptable proof of citizenship. Proof of citizenship and passport
is also required of adults and children travelling alone or with
their parents.
Immigration & Customs Paperwork - You will
need to fill out two forms prior to entering Bermuda, an
Immigration form and a Customs form.
The immigration form requires a valid machine
readable Passport valid for six months after date of entry into
Bermuda required by all nationals from Britain, Australia, Canada,
USA or other EU countries. Depending what country you are from you
may need a Visa. Before entering Bermuda, it is essential to
be in possession of either a return or onward ticket to a country
to which one has a legal right of entry. Anyone arriving in Bermuda
and intending to return to their own country via another one which
requires a visa must obtain such a visa before arrival in
Bermuda.
The Customs form must be filled
out declaring any gifts you are bringing to Bermuda. Be aware
that fruits and vegetables are not allowed in Bermuda and must be
discarded before entering the country.
Married women using their maiden name on identification
documents, but who are travelling under their married name should
also carry their marriage certificate as further proof of
identity.
The permitted length of stay is initially three months. For
extensions, permission should be sought from the immigration
authorities in Bermuda.
