Bermuda has announced updated COVID-19 protocols, offering new travel guidelines that will streamline the process for vaccinated travellers visiting the island, by land or sea. Effective from 7th March 2022, the revised guidelines will continue to ensure the safety of all residents and visitors, while making it even more convenient for visitors.
“We welcome visitors from around the world with travel guidelines that ensure their safety as well as their convenience, and our updated protocols will make visiting Bermuda even easier,” said Charles H. Jeffers II, Bermuda Tourism Authority (BTA) CEO. “Our hotels and local businesses are open with the Bermudian hospitality for which we are known. There’s never been a better time to visit.”
Bermuda’s new guidelines will require all visitors to show proof of current vaccination status and a negative COVID-19 test result (both antigen or PCR tests are allowed) within two days prior to arriving on the island.
Travellers will need to complete the Travellers Authorisation form with this information 24 –48 hours prior to arrival.
Fully vaccinated is defined as having received a full course of a COVID-19 vaccine with at least 14 days having passed since the last dose and before arrival in Bermuda.
No further testing will be required upon arrival. If country of origin requires a test to return, Bermuda will automatically schedule and provide return testing to travellers.

One more encouraging sign that the world of travel is heading in the right direction.
The US is aggressively telling would be vacationers that there are numerous US islands not requiring passports to travel- nor are vaccine passports required for travel. My
wife and families (children) take up 4 rooms at the south hampton which is change of owner and renovation. I have been coming there yearly since 1973, it’s a shame you wish to push mandates (untested drugs) on people not realizing the impact they might have on them. Possibly Brandon & Frankenfauci could pay china to reinvent the bubonic plague/spanish flu with no vaccine and deny it. Went to Atlantis it was great.
