SOURCE: IWNSVG – Effective tomorrow, Wednesday, Dec. 23, persons arriving in St. Vincent and the Grenadines from countries where there is a high risk of COVID-19 exposure would be required to quarantine themselves for 10 days at their own expense in a government-approved hotel.
This is according to the latest “Protocol for the Entry of Travellers to St. Vincent and the Grenadines”, announced by the National Emergency Management Organisation (NEMO) on Tuesday evening.
The protocol says that high-risk countries include the United States of America, the United Kingdom, and Canada as well as SVG’s closest neighbours, St. Lucia, Grenada, and Trinidad and Tobago and doubled the previous number of in-hotel quarantine days.
Travellers arriving from medium risk countries MUST Mandatory quarantine for 24 to 48 hours at home to await clearance.
Meanwhile, travellers arriving from low risk jurisdictions may be tested for COVID-19 on arrival in SVG at the discretion of the port health officer and will not require quarantine if there is no evidence of on-board vessel exposure and not in a high-risk occupation.
