Hi Andy,
My bike is a Canadian registered bike. You cross at the border either Lethem or Guyana/Suriname. You are given 3 days for your bike. Then you need to go to Georgetown. There you go to the Guyana Revenue Authority at 200 Camp Street. You are then given two weeks, then you must go back again and get another two weeks. If you want longer you need to write a letter to the Commissioner.
Caricom countries and I believe some South American registered bikes may get longer.
I am in the process of paying a deposit of $320,800 Guyanese dollars, (which is the same amount as the duty would be on my bike) so as to be able to keep my bike here for three months.
As far as bike storage,I think that could be organized if you let me know when you intend getting here.
The present govt through the Ministry of Tourism is looking at changing the law to be more in line with Central and South American countries.
I'll be in Georgetown until the end of March.
