Documents
U.S. Citizens entering Barbados:
• Valid Passport only. Get one here:
Travelers to Barbados who are under 18 need a signed parental release.
NON-US CITIZENS: You must obtain proper travel documentation from
the consulate of your nationality.
Exchanging Money
You'll want some Barbados dollars for incidentals, but
most larger payments can be made in US dollars or with
a credit card. Most restaurants, hotels and shops accept
Visa, MasterCard and American Express cards, and a few
also accept the Discover Card. Banks are easy to find
in the larger towns and major tourist areas.
Transportation
The best and cheapest transport option on Barbados is
the bus. Government-operated public buses are a flat 1.5
Barbados dollars per ride. There is also a privately operated
minibus system where rides cost the same. Taxis are readily
available too, however vehicles are unmetered so establish
a fare in advance, especially if you hire a taxi for a
sightseeing tour.
