Inspection of Consulate General Hamilton, Bermuda (ISP-I-02-39)
Operations at Consulate General Hamilton are focused on supporting airport preclearance procedures that facilitate American tourist travel, providing services to American citizens, resolving environmental issues that were left after the closing of the U.S. military and National Aeronautics and Space Administration bases, and encouraging the government of Bermuda to control money laundering. The consulate general is doing a good job of looking after these interests. Relations between the United States and the self-governing United Kingdom Overseas Territory of Bermuda are good. The narrowly based Bermudan economy is heavily dependent on American tourism and offshore business operations that either represent U.S. companies or target U.S. markets. Support and responsibility for Consulate General Hamilton are not centralized within the Dep ... [Read More]

Bermuda (10/04)

Despite the trend of American businesses moving to Bermuda or other offshore jurisdictions to escape U.S. taxes, Bermuda maintains that the island is not a "tax haven" and that it taxes both local and foreign businesses equally. ...

Termination of U.S.-UK Agreement on Leased Bases in Bermuda
Spanning six fateful decades, the United States and Great Britain have been the closest of allies. We fought against Nazi tyranny, joined forces in Korea, opposed Soviet oppression during the Cold War, and liberated Kuwait. We have helped stabilize the Balkans, and today are together once again in Afghanistan. Until 1995, the Bermuda bases provided key logistical support for trans-Atlantic missions by our Navy and Air Force. They allowed us to re-fuel and repair our ships and aircraft at critical times while enroute to Europe and beyond. The bases also furthered our scientific activities, as they enabled our National Aeronautics and Space Administration to function effectively on Cooper’s Island. In all these years, the United Kingdom and Bermuda were great hosts, as well as good friends, neighbors, and partners. We believe that all of us, together, have benefited from this close partnership. ... [Read More]
