Vaccine Requirements

My family and I will be traveling to Tortola from Texas in 2 weeks. One of us is vaccinated with a single dose of Johnson and Johnson. When reviewing the BVI requirements, they frequently reference fully vaxxed means 2 doses while WHO recognizes one shot of J&J as being fully vaccinated. Has anyone traveled recently with a single shot of J&J? If so, did you have any issues?

Thanks!

1 shot of J&J is considered fully vaccinated.

I traveled to BVI November '21 with one shot of J&J on my vaccine card and had no problems.

no worries. have had several guests travel into BVI with a single J&J shot.

thank you everyone!

My understanding is that you no longer need to be vaccinated to enter the BVI's. However, additional testing would be necessary. Is that correct?

Yes. Need negative PCR test within five days of entry. You also, as an unvaccinated guest, need to complete BVI portal ( https://bvigateway.bviaa.com/ ) and pay the portal fee. When you arrive, they test you again and charge you $50 for the test.

Just clarifying, for those that traveled to BVI with one shot of J&J, you were considered FULLY vaccinated and did not have to retest on arrival, correct?

Correct

have had several guests travel into BVI with a single J&J shot.
