Uruguayan passport holders don't need a visa, but immigration officers still check your passport validity, return ticket, and sometimes accommodation. Keep these handy to speed things up.

What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Maurice Bishop International Airport (GND)
After landing, follow signs to 'Immigration'. There's usually one queue for all non-citizens. Wait time varies from 10 to 45 minutes depending on flight arrivals.
2
Present your passport and ticket
Hand over your passport and return/onward ticket. The officer will ask your purpose of visit and how long you're staying. Answer clearly — tourism, business, or visiting family.
3
Get your entry stamp
The officer stamps your passport with the date of entry and the allowed stay (usually 90 days). Check the stamp before leaving the counter. Keep the stamp readable.
4
Collect luggage and exit
After immigration, collect your bags from the carousel. There's a customs declaration form to fill out if you have goods to declare. Otherwise, walk through the green channel.
