Barbados citizens traveling to Antigua and Barbuda: Don’t forget the Entry Form

Barbados and Antigua may share Caribbean ties, but if you're a Barbadian heading to Antigua and Barbuda, there’s an important requirement to remember: the Antigua and Barbuda Entry Form.

Is this form mandatory for Barbadian citizens?

Yes. Although Barbadians enjoy visa-free travel to Antigua and Barbuda, the entry form is still required.

It’s part of the country’s digital border system and must be completed online before your trip.

💡 Femke Strietman, iVisa travel expert, adds:

”The Entry Form not a visa, but it's required for all Barbadian travelers. It replaces the old paper customs forms on planes.”

Do I need it for a short flight or day trip?

Absolutely. The entry form is required for:

• Commercial flights
• Cruise stops

There are no exemptions based on how long you stay or how you arrive.
