Money and payments
Check the local currency before you travel. Card acceptance is widespread in cities and tourist areas, but carry a small amount of cash for markets, taxis and rural areas. Always choose to be charged in the local currency rather than your home currency to avoid poor conversion rates, and tell your bank you're travelling so payments aren't blocked.
Power and charging
Plug types vary — check your accommodation's details and pack a universal adapter with USB-C output.
Entry requirements and documents
Entry rules for Netherlands Antilles change regularly. Check your government's official travel advice and the destination's immigration website before booking. As a general rule keep at least six months' validity on your passport, have proof of onward travel, and save offline copies of your bookings, insurance and passport photo page.
Getting around
Download offline maps and your transport app of choice before you leave. With a working data connection from your eSIM you can call ride-hailing services, buy transit tickets and follow live navigation from the airport onwards — which is usually the moment travellers most need to be online.
What to pack
Beyond the obvious: a plug adapter, a power bank for long transit days, a copy of your travel insurance policy number, and your eSIM installed and labelled before departure.
