Antigua & Barbuda removes work permit requirement for OECS nationals

Citizens of the member states of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) are no longer required to obtain work permits to be employed in Antigua & Barbuda.

According to a statement from the government, current work permit holders will not be required to make applications for renewals of their documents, however, they are expected to contact the country’s Immigration Department to regularize their status.

Antigua & Barbuda becomes the latest member-nation of the OECS to implement this along with the granting of indefinite stays for citizens of the regional organization.
