Building in the Bahamas

June 1, 2012 by idxcentral 1 Comment

Building your home in the Bahamas is easier than you thought.  There are many licensed contractors who can handle your project.

Importing Materials

It is recommended that certain materials be purchased in the US and shipped to the Bahamas for building purposes.

Shipping Companies

There are several shipping companies departing from ports in South Florida on a weekly basis.

Customs Clearance On Island

Once your materials arrive on island they are held at the Brokerage company until they are cleared by Bahamas Customs and payment for any duties/freight, etc. are received.

Delivery of Materials

In most cases your Contractor or whomever you designate, will arrange pick up and delivery of the items to your building site.

Duties and Tarifs on Items Shipped to The Bahamas

This list and percentages are subject to change at any time.  It is important to contact the brokerage company on the island prior to shipping to confirm these costs.  Click here for the list of items and applicable duties.

Cheryl de Goicoechea

Cheryl was born and raised in Salt Pond, Long Island, Bahamas. As a child and teenager, she enjoyed the simplicities of island lifestyle such as fishing from rocky seashores, swimming in the warm aquamarine waters, exploring hidden coves and beaches with her friends, searching for sea grapes or finding coconuts to get a refreshing drink of coconut water on a hot summer day.
