Antigua and Barbuda's Immigration Department lists the countries whose citizens do not require a visa, among them the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, and says they may stay as long as their business takes, provided the stay is no longer than six months. Citizens of countries not on its lists require a visa, applied for through the electronic visa process; holders of a valid US, Canadian, UK or Schengen visa or residence card may instead be granted a Tourist Visa-on-Arrival for USD 100.

Passport validity: The Immigration Department says a visitor's passport must be valid beyond the date of their return ticket. For an eVisa application it asks for a travel document valid for at least 6 months from the date you intend to enter.
Return or onward ticket: The Immigration Department says visa-exempt visitors must have an onward or return ticket and confirmation of accommodation.
Vaccinations: WHO lists Antigua and Barbuda as requiring proof of yellow fever vaccination from travellers aged one year and over arriving from countries determined by WHO to be at risk of yellow fever transmission, including travellers who transited more than 12 hours through the airport of such a country. WHO's list of those countries includes Trinidad and Tobago.
