How long can I stay in Belize?

hammockbelize.jpgVisitors to Belize are initially allowed to stay for up to 30 days.  After 30 days visitors can get one month extensions by applying in person at any of the Immigration Offices throughout the country.  Each extension will cost $25 U.S. for the first six months, then $50 U.S. for the last six months.  After one year visitors are required to leave the country for at least 48 hours before returning to Belize and starting the process over again.

Please note that the rules and regulations change frequently in Belize, especially regarding immigration issues, so you would be wise to double-check with the Belize Government or the local Belize Embassy in your country regarding the latest rules.
