Antigua and Barbuda is working towards meeting the requirements set by Caricom for the full free movement of people within a single market by early 2024.
However, several logistics need to be addressed before this goal can be fully realized.
Information Minister Melford Nicholas highlighted the need for collaboration between social security schemes in different territories to ensure the transferability of benefits.
Additionally, crime management and the development of a digital framework to track individuals are important considerations.
While there are obstacles to overcome, Antigua and Barbuda remains committed to the vision of free movement and the integration of Caricom nationals into its society.

We need a regional police database to track the criminal element and deny them access to our country. Free movement will lead to criminals having free movement with fake IDs. Take a look at our stats, crime is on the upswing.
This notion of “free movement” needs to be revisited. Nothing in life is free, comes with costs and consequences for bad decisions by our politicians.
We should have a referendum on this
Antigua has the highest cost of living in the Caribbean, no body want to move here and go hungry. Only the highest paid will move and will still think twice. Just saying
LOL! Guess that why so many Jamaicans, Dominica Republic and Guyanese moving to Antigua. How many people from the Bahamas, Monserrat and Anguilla moving to Antigua?
