meeting the islands tourism minister

9 years ago

Hi to all those interested in long term tourism and more on this beautiful island.
I've been given the opportunity to chin wag with Louis Lewis, Mof T. on 5th Feb.
I shall be asking about the cost of long stays here, is having to pay 200ec per person for every month or part of after our initial 42 days. This applies to Canadians, Americans, and Brits. Other countries nationals need a tourist visa, we don't, but the cost of the visa is a traction of what we have to pay. Plus payment , in the downtown, no close parking, requiring documentation, photos etc . takes two visits each time, totally unnecessary and time wasting. Could be much better streamlined. Anyone who wants me to ask pertinent questions please ask. I shall also ask for names, email addresses and tel#'s for those who want up to date info on starting a business, importing equipment to start a biz , visa, work permits etc.
Trust this will help others in the future.
Robert.
