Guatemala Allows Vaccinated Travelers Restriction-Free Entry
Guatemala has become the latest country to allow vaccinated tourists to enter without PCR testing or quarantines. The list of nations that have updated entry requirements to recognize vaccinated travelers is still quite small, under 10 countries as of late February 2021, but is slowly starting to grow.
Panama Eases Entry For Vaccinated Travelers
It’s being reported that Panama’s government has relaxed arrival procedures for vaccinated travelers coming into the country. Although the country’s borders have been open with conditions, those with ‘the complete vaccine’ will not have to undergo a swab test on arrival. Instead, arrivals will need to present proof of vaccination. Other sources note that a negative COVID-19 test is required for entry.
Panama reopens land borders to tourists
The Panamanian government has announced the reopening of the country’s land borders. “The National Immigration Service announces the reopening of land borders, for the entry and exit of Panamanian nationals, residents and foreigners,” the government statement reads. Those entering Panama must comply with “biosecurity measures” that include demonstrating proof of a negative coronavirus test — PCR or antigen — from within 48 hours. Authorities may also deny entry to those presenting symptoms of Covid-19.
