As of September 1, 2023, all travelers to Jamaica must complete a digital entry form. This new feature makes it much easier to get to your destination, while complying with the various global travel regulations.
Why fill in the online form?
Previously, airlines distributed a paper immigration form to be completed during the flight. Now, with this new digital tool in place since September 2023, travelers can directly submit their information via enterjamaica.com. No more juggling documents and pens on the move!
Not only does this measure speed up the administrative process for arrivals at the country's airports, it also fits in with the global trend towards dematerialization of the steps to be taken when traveling abroad, as underlined by Donovan WhiteJamaica's Director of Tourism.
How do I fill in the online form?
To obtain your digital entry form, follow the steps below:
- Access the portal enterjamaica.com;
- Please provide the requested information: full name, date of birth, gender, contact details, occupation, passport number, issuing authority, intended address in Jamaica, countries visited in the last six weeks, flight number, airport of departure, date of arrival, reason for travel, length of stay, number of pieces of luggage and list of family members traveling with you;
- Submit the form;
- Please note that quotations can be made up to 30 days before your arrival in Jamaica.
It is preferable to complete the form before departure.
However, to avoid stress and haste, it is advisable to take the time to fill in these details in advance, rather than in mid-flight or on arrival at your destination.. This will give you greater peace of mind during your journey, knowing that your administrative procedures are already well underway.
