Question

I am told that there is a $200 gov fee/taxes to visit Bahamas via cruise lines, true?

Answer 1

There are NO fees that you as a passenger on a cruise ship are responsible for paying out of pocket. Everything that you buy in the Bahamas is Duty/Tax free. The price that you pay for your stateroom onboard the vessel of your choice does include some taxes that are incurred by the cruise line itself. Once again you pay NO fees or taxes in order to go ashore in the Bahamas. A very nice place to visit I might add. Take a local van tour when you get there. Haggle with the driver, you can spend about $25 each for a really nice scenic tour that usually lasts about two and a half hours. ....There is a limit as to what you can re-enter the US with however without paying additional taxes on. Items like alchohol and tobacco are regulated and they will only allow so much back in Duty Free.

Answer 2

idk sorry

Answer 3

Never heard of it.  There may be some fee,but that does not sound realistic.  Why not call your cruise lineto getthecorrect info.

Answer 4

I was just there earlier in the month. I visited three Islands and never had to pay a fee or a tax. If there are fees it is built into the cruise line fare.

Answer 5

There are government fees and taxes charged for every cruise.
