French West Indies aggregate: shared ordinary-passport visa-free short visits
The current Guadeloupe/Martinique and Saint-Martin/Saint-Barthélemy Annex II schedules each waive a short-stay visa for these ordinary passports; the aggregate result is visa-free only where all four constituent territories have the same nationality baseline.
- For this upstream aggregate, French West Indies means Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint-Martin and Saint-Barthélemy. The two governing orders are separate; this policy retains only ordinary-passport waivers common to both territorial schedules.
- The ordinary visitor waiver is for no more than 90 days in any 180-day period unless the row states a narrower limit. Dominica and Saint Lucia are limited in every constituent territory to stays of no more than 15 days and 120 cumulative days in 12 months.
- Brazil is visa-free for Guadeloupe and Martinique and separately for Saint-Martin and Saint-Barthélemy; the French-Guiana exception does not alter this aggregate. Australia, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Singapore, the United States and Venezuela retain the schedules' paid-activity/work-authorisation exception.
- This is a nationality-and-ordinary-passport visitor baseline only. It does not establish work, residence, paid activity, transit, cruise, biometric/document-specific, diplomatic, official/service, special-document or final-admission treatment. A Schengen visa alone is not sufficient for these territories.
