What is the application fee for a Barbados work permit?


The initial application processing fee for a Barbados work permit is $300 Barbados Dollars.

If the application is subsequently approved then a further fee shall be payable in order for the permit to be issued. The amount of this fee is determined by the particular work permit category, permit duration, and nationality of the prospective employee. For information on this latter element of the fee (i.e., the permit approval / issuing fee) please contact the Work Permits section at the Barbados Immigration Department on immigration.workpermits@barbados.gov.bb.
