PUBLIC ADVISORY - Text Message Scam
RCIPS and CIG are urgently warning the public of text message scam which is circulating locally. The text message claims to be from the Cayman Post and states that a parcel cannot be delivered until customs duties are paid.
The public is being advised to ignore any such messages received, and NOT to click any links within.
Seafood
Approved seafood from all countries may be imported into the Cayman Islands. A Certificate of Wholesomeness must accompany quantities in excess of twenty (20) pounds. All seafood of any quantity, from Central America, South Americas and Cuba must be obtained from an approved processing plant and accompanied by a Certificate of Wholesomeness from the Competent Government Authority of the country of origin. Intended importation of seafood in excess of twenty (20) pounds from Central and South Americas and Cuba would require prior application for an Import Permit from the Cayman Islands Department of Agriculture.
