Travelers to the British Virgin Islands will no longer be required to register via the territory's Gateway Travel portal or show proof of travel insurance from June 15, according to the minister for health and social development.
Penn said the policy change followed a June 8 cabinet briefing on the current COVID-19 situation. The metrics show that we have transitioned away from an emergency phase of the epidemic.
All travelers over the age of five will be required to present proof of a negative rapid antigen test 48 hours before entering. Travelers can show a document certifying COVID-19 recovery within 90 days of arrival.
All travelers entering the territory will be subject to COVID-19 screening. At the port of entry, anyone with signs of illness can be tested.
Penn said, "New variant can emerge and spread fast, and it may become necessary to restore some measures that have been relaxed."
Persons who can't prove a negative test result or a doctor's document will be tested upon arrival in the territory. Travelers who test positive will have to follow the instructions of the Ministry of Health.
