Barbados Drops All COVID Travel Entry Protocols

Effective immediately, Barbados has discontinued all COVID-19 related travel protocols. There are now no testing requirements for entering Barbados whether visitors are vaccinated or unvaccinated.

In addition, the wearing of masks in Barbados is now optional in the vast majority of settings. Mask wearing only remains mandatory for persons working in and visiting healthcare facilities, nursing homes, hospitals and senior citizens homes; persons travelling on public transportation; and for persons who are COVID-19 positive.

"This is the last step for us which reflects our position as fully open for business following the COVID-19 pandemic," said Minister of Tourism and International Transport, Sen. the Hon. Lisa Cummins.

"We look forward to continuing to welcome visitors to our shores to experience all of the new and returning events slated for the rest of the year, and into early 2023."
