Question

What do I need to do before traveling to the Bahamas (COVID-19 related info)?

Answer

*UPDATED 1/25/22* All guests will need to apply for The Bahamas Health Travel Visa prior to your travel to the Bahamas. You will create a profile, upload your travel information and travel documents and add in your trip. Vaccinated guests will need to obtain a negative Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) and unvaccinated guests will need to obtain a negative RT-PCR test, lab tests only, no at home. These tests must be no more than 3 days (72 hours) prior to the date of arrival and upload their negative results to your profile. As of 1/19/22 guests will also need to complete a rapid test (48) hours after arrival, depending on length of stay. There is a cost associated with the Health Travel Visa, currently $40.00 per person. This cost does cover (2) tests including your test to return to the US and the resort offers testing on-site.
