Bonaire’s Tourism Entry tax
July 1, 2022 – Bonaire Entry Tax
Per July 1, 2022, visitors will be required to pay a tourist entry tax of $75 per person, per visit to Bonaire.
This is not a new tax. It is simply replacing what was formerly known as tourist tax (or Room tax) and car rental tax. It was previously collected directly through accommodations and providers.
The Entry Tax will apply to all non-residents 13 and older entering Bonaire. Non-residents 12 and under and residents of the former Netherlands Antilles arriving to the island will be required to pay a $10 per visit fee.
This mandatory tax can be paid digitally via an online platform www.bonaireisland.com or upon arrival at the airport.
The funds from the tax are invested to support education, infrastructure, tourism development and sustainability initiatives on the island.
