Where in the World can you Travel as a Vaccinated Traveller?
Over the past two years we have become dedicated armchair travellers with a growing list of places to visit once restrictions are dropped. We are now akin to a trainee pilot who has been training for months in a simulator – we want to break out and do the real thing.
The good news is that travel is back and destinations are largely on the whole all open again!
Suddenly we are like kids in a candy store with many choices on hand. The question on everyone's lips is ‘what countries are open for international travel?’ As the vaccination roll-out has gained momentum around the world, many countries are opening up their borders to fully vaccinated travellers. You may well ask where can I travel and more importantly where can I travel without quarantine?
Vaccination travel is the new buzz word and at present travel fall into two categories:
- Those countries that require you to be fully vaccinated.
- Those countries that only require negative Covid tests.
These are the newly opened countries that require vaccination to enter:
These are some of the countries that have already been open for a while that still require vaccination upon entry:
- The Netherlands
- United Kingdom
- Singapore
- Thailand
- India
- Malaysia
- Cambodia
- Vietnam
- Ghana
- Tanzania
- Seychelles
- Madagascar
- Bahamas
- Cayman Islands
- Cuba
