FAQs

No, US citizens don’t need a visa for tourism or business stays of up to 90 days. You’ll just need a valid passport, a confirmed return or onward ticket, and proof of accommodation. However, all travelers arriving by air must complete the mandatory ArriveAntigua digital form before landing.

Yes, but only under specific conditions. If you’re from a visa-required country but hold a valid visa or permanent resident card from the US, Canada, UK, or a Schengen member state, you’re eligible for a Visa on Arrival. The fee is $100, and the visa is typically valid for a single entry of up to 30 days.

The NDR Visa is a long-stay program for remote workers who want to live in Antigua and Barbuda for up to two years. To qualify, you must prove you’re employed by a company outside the country and earn a minimum annual income of $50,000. It allows you to move with your family and enjoy tax-free status on your foreign income.
