Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade
Consular services, document apostille applications and the JA-DEM diaspora platform
By Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade
What it does
Jamaica's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade uses its site to handle consular work and diaspora engagement. Consular pages cover passport and citizenship applications, authentication and legalisation of documents, apostille authentication applications and notarial services, with the required forms available for download.
Visa information is published in two directions: entry requirements and country listings for travellers coming to Jamaica, and requirements facing Jamaicans travelling abroad, alongside travel advisories.
Diaspora services run through JA-DEM, the ministry's Jamaica Diaspora Engage platform, which is described as strengthening digital links with Jamaicans overseas and giving them direct access to information and opportunities. The Global Jamaica Diaspora Council membership and elections and a diaspora mentorship academy are administered through the same channel. Press releases, statements and trade policy documents are published on the site, and customer service inquiries are handled by email and phone. Services are free apart from statutory document fees.
