Info if Over 50 and looking at Retiring in Barbados
 

Happy Owner - one of our Barbados forum participants has kindly supplied this valuable information for anyone who is retiring and wanting to own property and live in Barbados. The info in this link is really helpful and sets out the following for The Barbados Special Entry Permit requirements for retired property owners are as follows:•

Must own Barbados real estate valued at US $150,000 or higher
• Must be retired
• Police certificate of character
• Health insurance coverage worth US $350,000 for persons under 50 years; US $500,000 for those over 50 years

It now seems that $7000 BDS will cover you from the age of 50 to 59 ( instead of 7 years ) then when you are 60, you must reapply for the $10,000 BDS Indefinite Visa .
You can also apply for a Special Entry Visa under 50 years of age for $10,000 BDS but you must be retired.

I would point out that I had to pay $300 just to apply for my Visa, and had I been turned down, I would have lost it, so don't be surprised if that happens and know that you will also need your Birth Certificate , Marriage Certificate if applicable, Bank Statements ( to prove you can keep yourself ) and several passport like photos, as well as your Police Character Reference and proof of Health Insurance .
