Netherlands Antilles Curacao

Curacao Cruise Terminal

This international port primarily handles cruise ships. Most, if not all cruise ships, sail in international territorial waters, so you will be able to buy duty free and tax-free goods onboard during your journey.

Some cruise lines only allow you to consume your duty free alcohol after you have finished your cruise. Check with your cruise specialist before you sail, for more details.


Soon we will give you a ferry or cruise ship affiliate link where you can order your duty free goods online for collection on arrival at the store. This will save you time during your journey and also money as tax-free discounts and coupons are often available for online pre-order purchases. In the meantime, for prices and details of the products available at the shop, please contact us.

The 'duty free on arrival app' is now available for use in Android beta v1, enabling a global search for duty free shopping from your cellfone. Please see our 'about' page for details.


Curacao has two freezones, The Harbour Duty Free Zone and the Airport Duty Free Zone. These areas are wholesale duty free and tax-free commercial freeports and this is their primary function. Individual shopping is permitted and you can purchase small quantities of goods for delivery to the airport or ship for your departure. More often the purchases made in these areas are for traders who wish to export bulk goods, either personally or through shipment. Of course, there are plenty of individual shops selling at good prices, near the port and downtown.
