Visas
Persons who wish to apply for a Jamaican visa can send in their applications or can walk in to the
Embassy. It is important to note that the processing of visa applications can take between 5-10 business
days, as ALL applications have to be referred to Jamaica for approval. As such persons should submit
their application within a reasonable time before their proposed date of travel
Please note that your application does not guarantee you a visa and as such, like all other applications
the cost is non-fundable and any cost that is incurred or lost as a result of waiting time will not be
addressed by the Embassy.
All visa applications attract a Consular fee of $10
Applicant should submit:
A valid passport
The completed application form
A passport photo
Travel itinerary
Hotel reservations where applicable
Bank Statement/job Letter (if requested)
The applicable processing fee (and mailing of $20 for mail in applications)
