A sponsor of a tourist visitor seeking permission to land in the Islands or seeking an extension of the permission may, at the discretion of an immigration officer, be required to give an undertaking in writing to be responsible for that tourist visitor’s maintenance and accommodation during the period of his stay in the Islands.
Where a sponsor has given an undertaking under subsection (1) in respect of any tourist visitor, the sponsor shall, within twenty-four hours of the expiration of the grant of permission, inform the Chief Immigration Officer in the prescribed manner of any failure by that tourist visitor to depart from the Islands on or before the expiration of the permission granted or any extension thereof.
A sponsor who acts in contravention of subsection (2) commits an offence.
