Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your Greek passport needs to be valid for the entire time you plan to stay in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Immigration officers at Argyle International Airport check this at the desk. Airlines also verify it before boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Saint Vincent and the Grenadines | Immigration will ask for a confirmed return or onward ticket before they stamp you in. A printed copy or a digital version on your phone works. Without one, they can deny entry and put you on the next flight out. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have a printed or digital hotel confirmation ready. If you're staying with a friend, a letter of invitation with their contact details helps. Officers occasionally ask for this at the border. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Carry a bank statement or credit card showing you have enough cash for your trip. Immigration can ask how you'll pay for your stay. A daily budget of around $100 USD per person is a safe benchmark. | Recommended |
No visa needed, but don't skip the basics
You don't need a visa, but immigration still checks your passport validity, return ticket, and accommodation. Have them ready to avoid delays.
Overstaying is expensive

No, there's no online arrival declaration. You'll fill out a paper landing card on the plane or at the airport before immigration. It's a simple form asking for your name, passport number, flight details, and address in Saint Vincent.
You'll be denied entry. The 6-month validity rule is strictly enforced. If your passport expires sooner, renew it before you travel. No exceptions.
