Hi bajieblonde
what nationality are you? if you are english we are entitled to 6 months stay in barbados but as yet i have not heard anyone get that stamp at the airport. i myself got 3 months on asking one time and their only question was can I support myself and i said yes - told them i needed the 3 months as i was looking for land (lol). You will prob get anything at airport form 1-3 months but i would def ask for 3 after that you need to go to immigraiton and waste a day requesting extension and pay i think $50 i have never done it myself . They will allow the stay of up to 6 months is what my friends have found.
Hope this helps

Hey Serendipity,
Thanks for that, its pretty reasurring after recent stories of deportation and immigration gettin stricter.
Seems its the luck of the draw and a different story for everyone.
I just wouldnt want to risk being banned from the island.
Thanks again!
