Bermuda’s immigration fees to increase

This year’s budget called for a 5% increase across the board

As provided for in the budget presented by Bermuda’s minister of finance, Curtis Dickinson, on February 21, 2020, legislation to increase the level of immigration fees in Bermuda was today approved by the House of Assembly.

It is anticipated that the 5 per cent. increase will result in additional revenue for the Immigration Department of between $800,000 and $900,000. The funds will be used in the implementation of various enhanced services which will be offered by the Department in the coming year.
