Departure Tax
NAG10 (US$7) to other islands in the Netherlands Antilles; children under two years of age and passengers transiting within 24 hours are exempt.
Getting Around by Road
Traffic drives on the right.
Bus: A good public bus service runs throughout the island and many of the main hotels provide their own minibus services to Willemstad.
Taxi: Easily recognisable by their signs and also the letters TX on registration plates. Taxis have no meters but fares are standard and are based on one to four people with a 25% surcharge for a fifth passenger and/or after 2300. Prices should be agreed in advance. Tipping, while not obligatory, is usually about 10% of the fare.
Car hire: International and local firms are located at the airport and in the main hotels, as well as in the capital.
Documentation: An International Driving Permit is required.
