MARIE-GALANTE: Entry Documents / Customs

MARIE-GALANTE: ENTRY AND CUSTOMS

In addition to local Guadeloupe entry requirements, your air or sea carrier may request additional documentation for passengers. Please check with your carrier in advance of travel.

Valid passports are required for all US, Canadian traveling as tourists to the French West Indies. For European Union citizens, the same requirements apply as traveling to France.

For citizens of other countries, a visa may be required in addition to a passport.

A return or ongoing ticket is required of all visitors.

No vaccination papers are required unless arriving from an endemic area.

Items for personal use (e.g. tobacco, cameras and film) are admitted without formalities or tax if not in excessive quantity. For other items, French regulations apply. "Rien à déclarer" marks the entry point for travelers with nothing to declare.

Cats and dogs over three months old may be admitted temporarily with certificates of origin and good health (or proof of anti-rabies inoculation), issued by a licensed veterinarian from the country of shipment. Please check with hotels and accommodations in advance regarding their policies on pets.
