The Virgin Islands Government has raised concerns over new 10% U.S. tariffs affecting the Territory, warning of potential economic impacts. Premier Dr. Natalio Wheatley affirmed efforts to protect the BVI’s economy through stakeholder consultations and regional cooperation. The Government is actively engaging with industry leaders to address rising costs and safeguard consumer interests.
His Majesty’s Customs and the Department of Immigration have launched a fully online card processing system to modernize the Embarkation/Disembarkation process in the Territory. Commissioner Mr. Clinton 'Greg' Romney explained that the system combines both agencies' processes, eliminating the need for travelers to fill out duplicate forms. The new online module, introduced by CARICOM IMPACS, allows for a more efficient, green, and cost-effective system, with travelers able to complete forms up to 72 hours before travel. The goal is to expedite processing, improve service at ports of entry, and enhance border protection and national security.
