Cayman Government Removes Visa Requirement for Jamaicans With US, UK or Canadian Visas

April 4, 2017 JA-Blogz News Team

Jamaican nationals who possess US, UK or Canadian visas can now enter Cayman without obtaining a visa specifically for that country.

Earlier this year, Premier Hon Alden McLaughlin announced a conditional visa exemption to make it easy for Chinese and Jamaicans with said visas to travel to Cayman.

According to Cayman 27, visitors who have any of these visas must be visiting the Cayman Islands directly from the US, UK or Canada and the duration of their stay should not exceed 30 days.

All other Chinese and Jamaican visitors, including cruise shippers, are required to get a visa unless they are in transit to join a cruise ship crew or a crew member of a commercial airline.

In 2005, the Cayman Islands introduced visa requirements for Jamaicans following a surge in the number of people leaving Kingston to benefit from the economic opportunities in Cayman following Hurricane Ivan.
