Belize welcomes vaccinated travelers without a COVID-19 test.
Visiting Belize has become easy as 1,2, 3! As Belize has now become the first country in the Caribbean to allow vaccinated travelers to visit without a COVID-19 test.
Vaccinated travelers no longer need to take a COVID-19 test to vacation in Belize and now only need to present a vaccination record card, with full inoculation completed at least two weeks before their arrival into Belize. "The decision to ease the restriction on travelers who have received the COVID vaccine has been facilitated by the reduction in daily new cases across the country," reps for the Belize Tourism Board said in a statement, Caribbean Journal reported. "Belize has been very successful in its efforts to control the transmission of COVID-19 over the past few weeks; presently, there are less than 100 active cases countrywide, and the numbers have been consistently decreasing."
