The Bermuda government Minday warned the public against paying any fee through the website Travel Smart Travel Fast, which it says is not an official government of Belize website.
The Ministry of Immigration, Governance and Labour said that the website appears to present itself as a Belize travel entry service and charges users to process entry to Belize.
‘The Ministry confirms that the Government of Belize is not affiliated with this website in any way. Members of the public are strongly advised not to pay any fee through this website,’ the ministry said.
It said that persons should visit the official immigration website migration website, https://immigration.gov.bz/visa/visa-who-qualify/ to determine whether persons need a visa to enter Belize, the type of visa required, and the applicable official fees.
The ministry said that visa application forms and the Letter of Financial Support are also available on the official website and it is urging the public to use only official government of Belize platforms for immigration information and services.
