Det viktigaste

Inresa och visum
Bring a passport, onward or return ticket, accommodation details and funds. British tourists are usually admitted visa-free for 30 days, with extensions possible. Requirements differ by passport and residence; check the Bahamian High Commission. Complete the immigration card; selected flights participate in a digital pilot alongside paper processing.
Passets giltighet: Bahamian High Commission London asks for 6 months beyond departure; check the requirement for your passport.
