Did I miss a post or are we aware that the BVI Gov't in their own quiet way has rescinded the 'sin tax duty' act that was soooo well publicized on TV, Radio, paper, Internet..The Wholesalers, RTW, Carib Cellars, TICO, etc. were notified a week or so ago......jollylou

Maybe they will rethink the 40% increase in the accomodations tax.
