The Barbados Welcome Stamp Visa offers the opportunity for individuals to live and work remotely on the island paradise of Barbados. With the changes in working life sparked by the Covid-19 outbreak, the Welcome Stamp Visa is the perfect option for anyone looking to spend a little longer on island and live like a Bajan.
On 30 June 2020 the Barbados Government announced the introduction of the 12-month Barbados Welcome Stamp. This new remote work programme establishes a visa to allow people to work remotely in Barbados for a maximum of 12 months. The visa is available to anyone who can meet the visa requirements and whose work is location independent, whether individuals or families.
