Absolutely the WORSE experience of my life! And I’ve been to jail surrounded by crack heads with NO ac! They are TERRIBLE! They are RUDE, LAZY, ENTITLED, and DISRESPECTFUL! That entire place needs to be cleaned out from TOP to BOTTOM! I’m embarrassed at how DISGUSTING those people in the consulate work and how they treat BAHAMIANS! They ALL should be ASHAMED!

The worse experience of my life, imagine my father was on his dieing bed and I had been contacting this office since is was 23 years of age and it is sad that I am now 29 years of age I consistently continued to reach out to this office patiently awaiting for the passport officer to call me and he never did. Now my father is dead and this office still has failed to to reach out to me in regards to applying for my passport as I am a Bahamian citizen. I needed and emergency travel to attend the funeral as I am in Florida and need to get to south andros to bury my father. I have nothing left !

Mr. Williams was especially pleasant. He should be in The Ministry of Tourism, Miami.
My family lives in Colombia and obtained visa to visit US. They would like to take a cruise that will stop in Bahamas for 2 days while they are busing me in Miami. Do they need visa to enter to Bahamas? Which documents they will need ? Please urgent
Yes the application is on their website, depending on how expired it is you may need several other forms of id but typically your birth certificate, national insurance card if you have one will do the trick, and get there early and have copies of everything
You still need to come into the consulate for a bahamian visa. We located at 100 biscayne blvd
Miami, fl.new world tower bldg...9.30 am is an ideal time to come in....

My passport expired when I was a child so it may be different for you. I had to bring my birth certificate, My daddy birth certificate, parents marriage certificate and the expired passport. Fill out a new form to renew the passport then pay a fee. it takes 6-8 weeks (sometimes earlier) to get it. You also need new passport pictures.

Yes you do require a Bahamian visa. The visa costs $100 and there is a 2day processing time. Should you require expedited service an additional $100 is added with the total visa cost at $200 per applicant and a wait time of 3 hours. Documents needed are the completed visa application form, 1 passport sized photograph, valid passport and your cruising itinerary. Visas are processed between 9am and 3pm Monday-Friday.
