Turks & Caicos Islands are blessed with a small and growing, diverse Jewish community. The congregation consists of mostly expatriate Jewish communities from around the world. It depends on how many locals and visitors are on the island, whether or not there are sufficient people for a minyan. In 2020, a Chabad Center opened on Providenciales to serve thekosher & Jewish needs of the small Jewish community and kosher vacation visitors. The Chabad of Turks & Caicos Islands provides kosher Shabbat meals, help with kosher food and minyanim.
