The Government of Jamaica has put into effect amendments to the island’s duty-free law allowing the sale of arrivals duty-free products. The cabinet approved an amendment to the Jamaican Duty Free Shopping Act in April 2010.

Jamaican tourism minister Edmund Bartlett said:
All incoming visitors will now be able to purchase duty-free items at licensed in-bound shops. This new move will open up the island to a new dimension in shopping. It will open up a new area for increased revenue and will put Jamaica in a position to do a number of other things. As Minister of Tourism, I have expanded the list of items which can be sold, including loose gem stones, designer clothing and accessories and several other items.
