Bermuda Travel Authorization

Hi I just want to confirm that as of today July 30, 2023 Bermuda is no longer requiring a travel authorization form before cruising??? Found both yes and no answers when researching.

long gone simple to check and the "horses mouth" so to  speak is where to look:

https://www.gov.bm/coronavirus-travellers-visitors#:~:text=Effective November 14 2022%2C travel,apply for a travel authorization.

 

Visitors

 

Effective November 14 2022, travel authorizations will no longer be required to enter Bermuda. Visitors (arriving by air or yacht) travelling to Bermuda from November 14 onwards do not need to apply for a travel authorization. In its place, the Bermuda Tourism Authority (BTA) will reinstate the Bermuda Arrival Card, a digital form for visitors only, which was in place before the onset of the pandemic. Cruise visitors are not required to complete any entry form.

The online visitor arrivals process can be completed in three easy steps.

 

 

1. Go to www.BermudaArrivalCard.com

    

2. Complete the form accurately and completely with visitor details

    

3. Download the form and present it to immigration officials for inspection

 

 

 

There is no approval process, no fee, and once the required fields have been completed, the form is available as a downloadable link or by email. All non-residents who travel to Bermuda as of November 14 must complete the Bermuda Arrival Card even if they have previously completed a travel authorisation form. Hard copy ‘Pink Forms’ will be available for non-resident travellers who have not completed the digital Bermuda Arrival Card. There is no need to accept a ‘Pink Form’ if you have completed the digital form.

They have not required it since November 13, 2022.

The above is key since I know some people don’t read well.
