On October 1, 2025, Barbados, Belize, Dominica and St. Vincent and the Grenadines launched a historic EU-style free movement agreement. Citizens of these four Caribbean nations can now live, work and settle indefinitely across borders without visas or work permits. Families gain access to education, healthcare, and other essential services, marking a significant expansion from previous CARICOM mobility rules, which were limited to skilled workers or short-term stays. The agreement aims to strengthen regional integration, retain skilled professionals, and create more opportunities within the Caribbean. Security measures are in place to prevent misuse, while authorities retain the right to deny entry to threats.
