STUDENT PERMITS

If you are moving to Trinidad and Tobago with your kids and plan to enroll them in school, you will need to apply for a student permit for each child. The Immigration Division does not issue Student Permits to students prior to their arrival in Trinidad and Tobago. This application will need to be done after your arrival in country, once they have successfully been accepted and enrolled into their school of choice. The list below includes the relevant documents required for submission to Immigration:

·         Student Permit Application Forms 

·         Letter and Receipt from the School (the schools are familiar with the letter required)

·         Passport of applicant (student) and assignee

·         Applicant’s TT Visa

·         Copy of Work Permit

·         Fees – TT$200

Additional information can be obtained from the Ministry’s website using this link: http://www.immigration.gov.tt/Services/Permits/StudentPermit.aspx
