Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport needs to be valid for the entire time you plan to stay in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. No minimum validity beyond your departure date is required, but airlines may enforce a 6-month rule — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Saint Vincent and the Grenadines | Immigration officers routinely ask for a return or onward ticket at the border. Have a printed or digital copy of your flight booking ready — they check this before stamping you in. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | You may be asked where you're staying during your visit. Keep a hotel confirmation or a letter of invitation from your host handy — it's not always checked, but it smooths things out if they ask. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Immigration can request evidence of sufficient funds for your trip. Carry a bank statement or credit card showing you have enough to cover accommodation, meals, and incidentals — around $50–$100 USD per day is a safe benchmark. | Recommended |
Passport validity counts from entry, not departure
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you land in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. If it expires sooner, you'll be turned away — even if you plan to leave before it expires.
No visa extensions available
The 90-day visa-free period cannot be extended. If you need to stay longer, you must leave the country and re-enter (subject to immigration discretion). Overstaying can lead to fines and future entry bans.
