Seychelles allowing vaccinated travellers skip quarantine

Saturday, 20 Jan, 2021 0

Tropical island destination the Seychelles will let travellers skip quarantine if they have been vaccinated.

The current 10-day isolation period is dropped as long as they have been fully vaccinated.

Official documentation from a health authority is required to prove both vaccine doses have been administered.

They must also have proof of a negative PCR test result taken within 72 hours of travel.

Tourism officials are pinning their hopes on vaccinated travellers to fuel a tourism recovery.

"We hope that this will open up the tourism industry for the locals primarily for the small hotels who are struggling on La Digue, Praslin and also on Mahe. And also provide the kick that our economy desperately needs," Tourism Minister Sylvestre Radegonde said.
