Connecting through another country?

This page covers a direct flight to Caribbean Netherlands.

Transit rules depend on your specific routing, so check the country you connect through separately, or analyse your full itinerary.

What to know before you go

Check your phone coverage abroad

INFO

You're travelling to Caribbean Netherlands (BQ). Your home cellular plan may or may not include data abroad — check your carrier's international options before you fly. An eSIM is a low-commitment alternative if your plan doesn't cover the destination or charges high roaming rates.

Malaria-endemic destination: Guinea-Bissau (GW)

INFO

Your itinerary touches Guinea-Bissau (GW), where malaria transmission occurs. Transmission is often region-limited within a country (e.g. coastal vs highland zones) and varies by season. Discuss prophylaxis with a travel medicine clinician — the right antimalarial depends on the specific region, your medical history, and any medications you take.

We don't yet have verified visa data for Caribbean Netherlands

INFO

Your passport-to-Caribbean Netherlands pairing isn't in our verified reference yet — coverage is expanding. Before booking, confirm the requirement directly with Caribbean Netherlands's official immigration portal (linked below). If a visa is needed it usually has to be applied for in advance, so don't rely on a check-in agent's word.

Bring a Yellow Fever certificate for Caribbean Netherlands (BQ)

INFO

Because you're flying in from Guinea-Bissau (GW), Caribbean Netherlands (BQ)'s entry rules require proof of Yellow Fever vaccination. The standard document is the yellow WHO Yellow Card (ICVP) signed by the clinic that vaccinated you. If you can't be vaccinated for medical reasons a physician-signed exemption letter is the alternative — both check-in agents and border officers vary in how strictly they accept exemptions, so plan for the strictest reading. Add your YF status to your profile for guidance specific to your situation.
