What is the resident exemption for entering The Bahamas?

• A. $500.00 - twice per year
• B. $300.00 - twice per year
• C. $1000 - once per year
• D. $0 - no exemption

Answer: (A)

Residents returning to The Bahamas have a duty-free allowance for personal goods. The limit is $500 for each return, and this exemption can be used twice in a calendar year. So you can bring up to $500 worth of personal items without duties on two separate trips in a year; amounts above that or additional trips would be taxed. The other options don’t fit because they propose different dollar amounts or a different frequency, whereas the official allowance is $500 per return, usable twice annually.
