Guide
Bermuda dropped its advance Travel Authorisation entirely on 1 March 2023, so there is nothing to file or pay for before you fly. Nationals of 159 countries can enter without a visa, generally for up to 90 days, though the real ceiling is set by the immigration officer at L.F. Wade International Airport, who has discretion over how long you may stay up to a maximum of 180 cumulative days in any rolling 12 month period. What replaced the old advance authorization is a Bermuda Health Authorization, part of the country's travel declaration system, which still needs to be completed before departure, alongside the standard Customs Traveller Declaration completed on arrival.
Immigration here still works the traditional way, a passport stamp at the airport rather than a purely digital record, worth noting if you are used to a country that has moved entirely away from physical stamps.
Border crossings
- L.F. Wade International Airport
Bermuda's main gateway, where an immigration officer grants permission to land and sets your specific stay length, within the overall 90 day standard and 180 day rolling cap.
Transit routes
- Complete the Bermuda Health Authorization before you fly
It replaced the old Travel Authorisation and is still a pre-departure requirement, not something to skip because the older system is gone.
- Do not assume 90 days is guaranteed
The immigration officer decides your actual permitted stay on arrival, up to the 90 day standard, so treat it as a maximum rather than an automatic grant.
Entry point notes
- A hundred fifty nine nationalities need no visa
A genuinely broad list, worth checking your own passport is on it before assuming otherwise.
- Track your cumulative days across a rolling year
The 180 day ceiling is not per visit, it covers all your time in Bermuda across any 12 month period.
