Clearing into French Polynesia requires either a cash bond of $1,800 per person or proof of a refundable one-way plane ticket out of the country.3:32 Sailors often use an agent like Tahiti Crew to manage this bond, handle fumigation certificates, and navigate shifting regulations.2:31 Upon arrival, vessels must fly a quarantine flag and maintain radio silence regarding shore leave until contact with customs or an agent occurs.7:59 While remote ports like Rangiroa allow clearance through local Gendarmerie offices, final processing often concludes at Papeete Marina.10:39 Clearing out of the country, particularly from Bora Bora, involves submitting physical paperwork that must be sent to Papeete for official stamping, a process that can take several days.21:11 This delay can complicate departures when sailors are attempting to time specific weather windows for subsequent passages.22:04 Using an agent facilitates the tax-exempt import of boat parts and provides support for inter-island clearance requirements.15:04
