Aevamo’s reading
The Vreemdelingenbesluit 1995 (Aliens Decree, S.B. 1995 no. 85), implementing the Vreemdelingenwet 1991, creates the entry obligation: Article 12 requires every alien to hold a passport carrying a visa unless the Minister designates an exemption. The current Entry-Fee regime and the 21-country visa/tourist-card list are later modifications of that obligation made by decree (S.B. 2022 no. 68, S.B. 2023 no. 76, S.B. 2024 no. 13) and ministry measures, so the decree is the instrument that creates the obligation the later instruments modify.
The VFS portal, the Government of Suriname's official application channel, states that the Government will not issue visas to Haitian citizens and that no direct flights from Haiti are allowed, so a Haitian citizen cannot obtain the advance authorisation required for entry and tourism entry is currently unavailable.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
