Bahamas Boating and Sailing Regulations

 

When arriving in port, boaters should observe the following: visiting boaters must clear Customs and Immigration at the nearest designated Port of Entry. All visitors must meet The Bahamas entry requirements.  As you enter the port, fly the yellow quarantine flag and notify Customs of your arrival. Customs and Immigration will come to your vessel. No one other than the captain is permitted to leave the boat until your vessel has been cleared. Everyone on board must have proof of citizenship and fill out an Immigration Card. US citizens can present a passport or birth certificate (original or certified copy) and an official photo ID, such as a driving license or a voter registration card. You must declare all onboard firearms with Customs. You must provide the firearm serial number and manufacturer, plus an exact count of ammunition. Though you are allowed to have a firearm on your vessel, you cannot take it off the vessel unless you obtain a permit from the Bahamian police ahead of time. Weapons must be under lock and key at all times. Any infraction of this law is dealt with severely.
