Dominica will permit international arrivals
starting Aug. 7.
The country cited “successful restrictions to curtail the
spread of Covid-19” in announcing the reopening on Tuesday. Dominica previously announced tentative plans to
reopen its borders Aug. 15.
Visitors must complete an online health questionnaire and
submit a negative result for a Covid-19 PCR test taken up to 72 hours before
arrival.
To accept visitors, hotels in Dominica must demonstrate
adherence to safety guidelines outlined by the country’s Environmental Health
Department. According to a statement from Discover Dominica, six hoteliers have
qualified so far, including the Cabrits Resort and Spa Kempinski and Rosalie
Bay Resort.
