BAHAMAS: No Covid-19 Testing For Vaccinated Travelers & MORE

by Danielle Garrett of PlanIt Travel Designs for The Aha! Connection

New rules for entry into the Bahamas were started on May 1.  Fully vaccinated travelers are no longer required to provide a negative Covid test for entry.  Unvaccinated travelers will still need to provide a negative Covid test within 5 days of arrival.  In addition, unvaccinated visitors staying more than 5 days must take a rapid antigen test on day 5.  Like all international travel, visitors must still provide a negative PCR or rapid antigen test within 3 days of re-entering the U.S.  To ease this burden, testing centers are provided by many hotels and resorts.
