Barbados has reopened its borders.

Visit barbadostravelprotocols.com for confirmation of country risk category. Starting on September 19, all travelers arriving from medium and high-risk countries must present a negative COVID-19 PCR test result issued from an accredited or certified laboratory taken within 72 hours prior to arrival to enter the country. Travelers arriving from low-risk countries are allowed to present a negative COVID-19 PCR test result taken within 5 days prior to arrival. Travelers who have been in, or transited through, a high-risk country who haven’t submitted proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test may be denied entry into the country. Travelers with a valid negative COVID-19 PCR test result will be quarantined at a designated holding hotel or approved villa at their own expense, or free of charge at a government facility, and monitored daily for the onset of symptoms. They will be quarantined for a period of 14 days with an option to take a second COVID-19 PCR test between 5-7 days after the last test accepted by the Ministry of Health and Wellness. Persons will typically be released once the test result is negative. Travelers from medium-risk countries who arrive with a valid negative COVID-19 PCR test result will be permitted to leave the airport after clearance by Immigration, Customs and Port Health Officials. They will then be subject to monitoring for seven days and a second COVID-19 PCR Test. If they refuse a second COVID-19 PCR Test, they will be subject to quarantine for 7 days.
