With declining local cases and International protocol adjustments, travellers to The Bahamas are no longer required to take a COVID-19 Rapid Antigen test on day 5 of travel.
"It is important to remain fluid and adapt our protocols to reflect a changing environment," said Acting Prime Minister the Honourable I. Chester Cooper, Bahamas Minister of Tourism, Investments & Aviation, "and we are pleased to be able to eliminate The Bahamas' testing requirements."
Visitors are still required to follow prescribed entry protocols including applying for a Bahamas Travel Health Visa at travel.gov.bs and uploading their pre-departure test results, taken no more than three days (72 hours) prior to the date of arrival.
Accepted forms of testing for entry based on vaccination status can be found here. An island-by-island list of approved testing sites is also available at that link.
"Despite the challenges of COVID-19, the strong desire for travel to The Bahamas has not diminished," said Latia Duncombe, Acting Director General, Bahamas Ministry of Tourism, Investments & Aviation.
"We remain positioned for a steady tourism recovery, and we will continue to assist efficiencies of travel-related requirements for our beloved visitors, while protecting the health and safety of everyone."
