I think many people are hoping to see the possibility of a reduced or even no stay-home notice when you travel abroad and come back, but we have not confirmed these yet. We are still working through them, and when we are ready, we will share what these guidelines are for vaccinated persons.”

- Mr. Lawrence Wong, Education Minister (The Straits Times)


As we are still waiting for these travel guidelines to be announced and shared by the government, let’s take a look at the list of countries that are going to or have been opening their borders to welcome vaccinated travellers:


1. Phuket

Starting from 1st July, tourists who have been vaccinated against Covid-19 are allowed to travel to Phuket. They will not be required to serve a quarantine there.


2. Seychelles

Since 14th January, Seychelles has allowed travellers to enter its territory as long as they have completed a full Covid-19 vaccination at least two weeks before their arrival. They also need to show a negative Covid-19 test that has been taken 72 hours before their flight.


3. Iceland

Iceland has welcomed travellers who have been fully vaccinated against Covid-19 since 18th March this year. They are not required to be quarantined or to do any testing. However, the vaccine has to be certified for use by the European Medicines Agency which includes Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, AstraZeneca, and Johnson & Johnson.


4. Ecuador - South America

Ecuador has also allowed travellers to enter the country provided that they have taken full Covid-19 vaccination. If they have not been vaccinated, they will need to show a negative Covid-19 PCR or antigen test taken not more than three days prior to them arriving in Ecuador. Remember to wear a mask and not to gather in groups of more than 10 here!
