In-Depth Information
You'll also pay an annual fee for garbage collection (CI $50 per year for
houses, CI $150 for condos).
The government does collect much of its money on duties. Some food items,
such as cheese, fish, rice, water, and others, are not dutiable but most
goods do carry both the cost of duty and of importation. Look for higher gro-
cery prices on just about all items.
Education
If you are bringing young family members to live in the Cayman Islands,
you'll soon learn that the mandatory education system is much like the
British. Children of non-Caymanians are charged a fee, ranging from CI
$150 per term for primary schools to CI $210 per term for high school. Sev-
eral private schools are also located on Grand Cayman.

the needs of business travelers organizing a conference as those of individ-
uals or groups organizing a family reunion or a wedding.
