Do United Kingdom passport holders need a visa to visit BS?

UK ordinary passport holders do not need a visa to visit the Bahamas for tourism. You are granted entry on arrival, typically for up to 30 days, with extensions available up to a maximum of 8 months. British citizens holding an ordinary passport are visa-exempt for tourist and short visits to the Bahamas. No visa or electronic travel authorization is required before departure. On arrival, immigration officers usually grant a stay of up to 30 days, which can be extended through the Bahamas Department of Immigration up to a maximum cumulative stay of 8 months. To enter, you need a valid passport (recommended at least 6 months validity beyond your departure date), a confirmed return or onward ticket, and evidence of sufficient funds for your stay. There is no entry visa fee. Overstaying carries penalties including fines, detention and deportation. Note: travelers should also be aware that arriving from or via the United States may require U.S. transit eligibility (ESTA), and a Bahamas departure tax is normally included in airline ticket prices.
