Changes in BVI Protocol

Changes in BVI Protocol - 04/23/2021 06:27 PM

The BVI Government announced today that beginning May 15 fully vaccinated travelers will only need to test prior to arrival, test on arrival (Day 0) and will be released from quarantine immediately after their negative Day 0 results are released. This eliminates Day 4 testing and quarantine. No information on entering private vessels.

It does not say rapid test or how long it will take for the test upon arrival though,it says PCR which in my experience take a bit of time, need a bit of clarity around that

Toast - the PCR tests there took on average 30 hours for return when we were there last month (all four of them - lol)

Our day zero test came back in just under 24 hours when we came in last week.

Ok, good to know, but still need to add two days if you want your full week to galavant around
