Uniworld is the latest cruise line to announce they are dropping their vaccination requirement for 2023 cruises.

In a statement issued this week, the company says they will continue guests to be fully vaccinated against COVID through 2022 they "have made the careful and informed decision to not require COVID vaccinations for guests traveling with Uniworld in 2023. However, guests will be required to follow the entry requirements specified by each country visited along their itinerary-by river, land or rail."

Entry guidelines for travel to each destination can be found on their Travel Requirements page and guests are responsible for ensuring they meet the travel entry requirements of each country visited during their river cruise.

RCI and Celebrity announced earlier this week they were dropping the mandates for most sailings as of September 5, joining Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings brands Norwegian, Regent and Oceania earlier this month.
