Introducing CARIPASS, the Regional Travel Card that gives you the freedom to move through immigration quickly and easily.

What is CARIPASS?

The new concept of passengers being electronically processed through immigration check points is a growing trend in the international arena. In this regard, CARICOM is now seeking to embrace this new technology to further enhance the travel experience of CARICOM Nationals and legal residents.

To facilitate this process, CARICOM Heads of Government have approved the implementation of a Regional Travel Card system known as CARIPASS.

 
The Travel Card Concept

CARIPASS would entitle current holders of passports issued by CARICOM Member States and legal residents, who are 16 years and over, to become part of a trusted traveler regime once they have been deemed eligible. CARIPASS holders would be expeditiously processed through specially designed self service gates at airports and eventually sea ports and could proceed directly to Baggage Arrival and Customs Halls.

The cards are alternative travel documents for regional travel and are valid for periods of one or three years at a cost to be determined according to international norms.

The travel card (CARIPASS) will be issued at national passport and immigration headquarters and is being designed to assist the frequent regional traveler in avoiding long immigration lines at the airport.
