FAQ

The longest stays: Antigua and Barbuda โ€” 180 days, Barbados โ€” 180 days, Dominica โ€” 180 days and Mauritius โ€” 180 days.
How accurate is this, and how often is it updated?
The reference is updated weekly and cross-checked against two independent sources; where they disagree, the country is marked โ€œReferences disagreeโ€. Only the destination country can confirm its rules โ€” check its official website or embassy before you travel.
