El Salvador - Clearance
ARRIVAL FORMALITIES
Ports of Entry:
El Salvador has closed Barrilas marina as a port of entry.
Bahia Del Sol is especially cruiser friendly and there is a free, on-site port authority and immigration service.
La Union and Acajulta are the other ports of entry but they are commercial ports without infrastructure to support recreational boats.
General process:
Clearing into and out of El Salvador is a quick process. It will include these steps and documents:
- Immigration: For entry into the country
- Copies of Passports
- Boat Documentation
- Original exit Zarpe and crew list from your last foreign port
- US$12 for 180-day visa
- Port Captain: Payment of port fees.
CLEARING OUT
Request an international zarpe from the Port Captain before departing El Salvador for your next country of visit. If you plan to cruise within El Salvadoran waters, request a national zarpe.
