Bermuda Releases New Immigration Residence Policies

Key Point 

• Bermuda clarifies residency rules to support families and ensure immigration integrity 

Residence Policy Updates 

Bermuda has introduced two new immigration residence policies as of September 29, 2025, aimed at enhancing transparency and fairness in its immigration system: 

• Permissions to Reside in Bermuda: This policy covers non-Bermudian students attending Bermuda College and individuals seeking annual residence. It outlines eligibility, application steps, renewal procedures and enforcement. 
• Partner Residence Application Guidelines: These guidelines define criteria for genuine partners of Bermudians, PRC holders and Work Permit holders. They set financial and character requirements and ensure that only legitimate relationships qualify. 

These updates reinforce Bermuda’s commitment to a balanced and accountable immigration framework that protects its borders while supporting residents and their families.
