SVG seeking Visa Accommodation with the US
THE GOVERNMENT Of St Vincent and the Grenadines is seeking to have visa- free accommodation for short periods of time, in a similar arrangement that it exists with the UK and the Schengen Area countries in Europe.
Speaking at a political meeting in South Rivers on Wednesday night, November 12, 2025, Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves said: “I want to tell you this…I want to tell you in South River first. A couple months ago I wrote the government of the United States…of America requesting of them that they accord St Vincent and the Grenadines visa free status to go to the United States”.
He said, “Even for a month…three months, you could visit your family. I point out, we have it for six months in England. We have it for 90 days in Europe and we don’t abuse it. That though I know that President Trump has a stance against certain types of immigration, that we in St Vincent and the Grenadines are peaceful. We don’t abuse the visa -free status going to the UK or the 27 countries in Europe which we negotiated, and that our passport is one of the three best passports in the Caribbean”.
