Bahamas cruising permit fees for pleasure yachts
From the Bahamas Customs page. Fees are in US$. The permit covers the yacht and is not for yachts used for hire.
| Permit | 50 to 100 ft | Over 100 ft |
|---|---|---|
| 30 days | US$350 | US$600 |
| 6 months (one free re-entry) | US$750 | US$2,000 |
| 12 months (two free re-entries) | US$1,000 | US$3,000 |
| Frequent Digital Cruising Card, two years | US$2,500 | US$8,000 |
| Outward clearance, if documents are needed for the next port | US$75 | US$75 |
Bahamas Customs states a passenger arrival tax of US$20 for each person aged six and over when a yacht carries more than three. The Bimini Big Game Club page states US$30. A vessel used for commercial purposes or for hire is not a pleasure vessel. Check the rules for your passport.
Charter
Charter licence
Customs says charter yachts fill in Form C2 and produce a valid charter licence from the Bahamas Port Department. A charter fee is payable on arrival. Ask your agent for the current rate. Check the rules for your passport.
Anchorage fee
Foreign pleasure yachts that do not moor at a marina pay an anchorage fee: US$50 up to 50 ft, US$100 over 50 ft and under 100 ft, and US$200 over 100 ft on a 30-day permit. (Bahamas Customs.)
