As interest in the Barbados Welcome Stamp increases worldwide, visitors can now get assistance applying for the programme 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
This is thanks to a new toll-free hotline, as well as an instant chat feature on the website www.barbadoswelcomestamp.bb, both just launched by the Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc. (BTMI).
The Barbados Welcome Stamp was announced this summer by Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley, who extended a worldwide invitation for visitors to live and work in paradise for one year.
Since its launch, there have been more than 1,600 individual and family group applications from around the world, totalling over 2,700 persons.
The destination’s traditional top source markets of the U.S., U.K. and Canada account for the lion’s share of applications, with applicants ranging from lawyers to entrepreneurs to digital nomads.
