Departure taxes and fees leaving St Barths
- USD 5.00 — Departure tax — St Barths unverified
An unverified figure was written down once and has not been re-checked against the authority that charges it. Treat it as a rough idea of what to expect, not a tariff.
Before you travel
- Allow 30–45 minutes for check-in at the port; operators close the list before departure.
- Bring photo ID or a passport — this is an international crossing on most of these routes.
- Operators change schedules seasonally and cancel for weather. Swell, not wind, is what stops a boat.
