São Bartolomeu: o que saber antes da viagem
O essencial
- A Schengen visa alone may not authorise this French overseas destination; check the territorial validity of any visa.
- Check transit formalities separately, particularly for Dutch Sint Maarten or the USA.
Entrada e vistos
All travellers need a valid passport. Where a French visa is required, it must specifically cover Saint-Barthelemy/Saint-Martin; verify before departure. The official tourism office states that US and British visitors can stay without a visa for up to 90 days. Bring return or onward travel and accommodation evidence.
Validade do passaporte: The tourism office asks US/Canadian visitors for over 6 months on entry; confirm the rule for your own passport before travel.
