Short-stay visa waiver agreements signed between EU and six Caribbean countries PDF Print E-mail

On the 28 May in Brussels, Belgian short-stay visa waiver agreements were signed between the European Union (EU) and six Caribbean countries – Antigua and Barbuda, The Bahamas, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Barbados and Indian Ocean islands Mauritius and Seychelles – in a ceremony that took place in Brussels.

As from 28 May 2009 the nationals of Antigua and Barbuda, The Bahamas, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Mauritius, Barbados and Seychelles and the citizens of the EU can travel without a short-stay visa to each others' territories. This visa-free travel will provide for visa-free travel for the citizens of the European Union and for the citizens of the six countries – holders of all passports (diplomatic, service and ordinary) – between their territories for stays not exceeding three months. The agreements cover all categories of travellers, except for the category of persons travelling for the purpose of carrying out a paid activity, for whom each Member State and also the six countries remain free to impose the visa requirement in accordance with applicable Community or national law.

In order to make citizens benefit from the visa-free travel as soon as possible, the agreements are provisionally applied from the date of today's signature, 28 May 2009. About 800.000 European citizens travel to these countries per year.

This is encouraging news for prospective home buyers and those looking for an excellent investment in property in these countries.
