  • To qualify for the licence, a used car must be no more than 4 years old and have no more than 50,000 km on the odometer (Miscellaneous Controls Act, Cap. 329). Please confirm the current criteria with the Department before you choose a car.

After arrival

  • Every imported vehicle, new or used, must be registered with the Barbados Licensing Authority.
