Dominica revises COVID-19 risk classification

In keeping with constant analysis of the spread of the pandemic in neighboring countries, Dominica revises its COVID-19 Country Risk Classification.

Effective January 18th, 2021, St. Vincent and the Grenadines and the Turks and Caicos Islands have reclassified as HIGH-RISK countries.

With the re-classification, travelers from St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Turks and Caicos Islands to Dominica must submit the following:

  • properly filled-out online health screening form; and
  • a negative RT-PCR test, taken within 24-72 hours of arrival into Dominica.

More so, travelers will submit to a quarantine period of up to 7 days where a PCR test is taken on day 5 after arrival, and results are expected within 24-48 hours.

Travelers must submit themselves to mandatory quarantine and may opt to quarantine at the Government operated facility or at a Safe in Nature certified property.

The Safe in Nature Commitment and Managed Experiences are available to all visitors, including guests from high risk classified countries visiting Dominica.

More information about the Safe in Nature Commitment and Managed Experiences and a complete listing of the risk classification of countries is available here.

Discover Dominica Authority said that it will continue to work with Health Officials to ensure the safety and security of visitors to the island, and with tourism stakeholders to ensure a unique managed experience in a responsible manner.
