    Bermuda: full British-citizen passports visa-free for a short visit

    Current UK government Bermuda guidance states that a holder of a full British citizen passport travelling from the UK may visit without a visa for up to 180 days in any 12-month period. This is visa-free, not an ETA, eVisa or visa-on-arrival route.

    • The UK source expressly limits this statement to people travelling on a full British citizen passport from the UK; it does not establish treatment for other British-national statuses or special British documents.
    • The stated limit is up to 180 days in any 12-month period and requires a return or onward ticket.
    • Work, study, business, residence, crew, transit, diplomatic, official, special-document, territory-belonger and individual-admission arrangements are excluded.

    Bermuda: unlisted nationals visa-free for bona fide short visits

    Section 28 of the Bermuda Immigration and Protection Act removes the need for specific permission for a bona fide visitor who fulfils its conditions. Order No. 2 of 2025 supplies the exhaustive nationality exception by prohibiting only the named Schedule nationals. The resulting unlisted ordinary-passport baseline is visa-free, not an ETA, eVisa or visa-on-arrival route.

    • This is limited to a bona fide ordinary-passport short visitor whose nationality is not in the current Order No. 2 Schedule; it does not cover special passports, residence, work, study, crew, transit, or individual permission routes.
    • Hong Kong SAR and Macao SAR passport rows follow the Order's express asterisk incorporation: the current UK Immigration Rules exempt PRC nationals holding those specific passports from the visa-national rule.
    • At landing and throughout the visit, the visitor must not be an exceptionable person and must hold a passenger ticket for departure to a country where the visitor has a right of entry.
    • The unrestricted period is six months or 180 days, whichever is greater, within a 12-month period, but the Minister may shorten or end it by written notice.
    • This statutory exemption from specific permission does not guarantee admission; other Immigration Act requirements and final border assessment remain applicable.

  3. Current official routeVisa required

    Bermuda: Schedule nationals require qualifying third-country travel authorization

    Order No. 2 of 2025 prohibits the named Schedule nationals from entering Bermuda unless they have qualifying current Canadian, UK or US travel authorization or a narrow Bermuda Government spouse/belongs letter. For the ordinary-passport baseline without either condition, this is normalized as visa-required; it is not a Bermuda eVisa or visa-on-arrival route.

    • This visa-required classification is the passport-only baseline: the Order requires advance qualifying travel authorization to enter and re-enter Canada, the United Kingdom, or the United States, valid for 45 days after intended Bermuda departure.
    • The official Immigration guidance describes that document as a UK, US, or Canadian multi-re-entry visa; the binding Order uses the broader term travel authorization. Neither source establishes a Bermuda-issued eVisa or visa-on-arrival for this cohort.
    • The Department's corroborative guidance additionally requires both the MRV and passport to remain valid for 45 days after the visitor stay expires. This enforcement wording is retained separately from the controlling Order's intended-departure language.
    • The asterisk incorporates current UK exceptions. Hong Kong and Macao SAR passports are mapped separately as visa-free; a Taiwan passport qualifies only when it contains the competent authority's identity-card number, so the broader TW issuer row retains the passport-only visa-required baseline.
    • A current Bermuda Government letter attesting that the person is a Bermudian spouse or belongs to Bermuda is a separate narrow exception and is excluded from this nationality-only visitor policy.
    • The double-asterisk Cuba, Haiti, Ukraine and Venezuela standard-work-permit landing exception and all work, residence, special-document, transit and individual-permission routes are excluded.
    • Even after the Order condition is met, the bona fide visitor requirements, duration limit, exceptionable-person rule and final admission assessment under the Immigration Act remain applicable.
