The Bahamas Announces Updated Travel and Entry Protocols
New Rules in Effect for Vaccinated Travelers
April 23, 2021
The Government of The Bahamas announced updated public health measures and entry protocols for fully vaccinated travellers, stating:
Effective May 1, 2021, international visitors travelling to The Bahamas from other countries who are fully vaccinated and have passed the two-week immunity period will be exempt from testing requirements for entry and inter-island travel.
Requirements For Vaccinated Travellers
Vaccinated travellers will still need to apply for the Bahamas Travel Health Visa and will be required to upload proof of vaccination (such a government issued vaccine record card) and ensure the name and date of vaccination(s) are clearly stated. They will not need to provide a negative COVID-19 PCR test prior to entry or submit to rapid testing mandates during their stay.
Requirements For All Travellers
All travellers will be required to apply for the Bahamas Travel Health Visa and complete the daily health questionnaire. All residents and visitors must adhere to health and safety protocols on-island such as mask wearing, social distancing and frequent hand washing among others. Health and safety remain their highest priority and we all must continue to be vigilant.
Please Note - Re-Entry to the US
You will need to get tested no more than 3 days before you travel by air into the United States and show your negative result to the airline before you board your flight. See CDC guidelines HERE.
