  • Driving in Barbados

What do I have to do to be able to drive legally in Barbados? 

As a visitor, you can secure a Barbados driver’s permit on producing a valid National or International License at a cost of US$5 for a 2-month permit and US$50 for a 1-year permit. All authorised car rental companies can issue the appropriate license.
