Summary

Pitcairn's seasonal visa is designed for repeated part-year stays, allowing up to six months in any twelve-month period during a five-year visa. The application still requires support, health, character and insurance evidence and a favorable public-interest decision by the Governor after Island Council consultation.

The five-year validity is not permission to live continuously on the island for five years. Seasonal holders do not receive permanent-resident status or benefits, and any local work requires a separate permission check.
