Puerto Rico No Longer Requires Negative Covid-19 Test for Vaccinated Travelers

Puerto Rico’s government has made it easier for U.S. travelers, and everyone else, to visit the island. A new executive order, which goes into effect on today, May 24th, eliminates negative COVID-19 PCR molecular test requirements for fully vaccinated travelers on domestic flights and lifts the local curfew, which was established in March 2020.

With the new scaled back restrictions, not only it becomes easier to visitors travel to Puerto Rico, but it also makes the stay there more enjoyable. The order has increased capacities for businesses from 30 to 50 percent, removed mask requirement for fully vaccinated individuals in parks and beaches, and gives permission to consume alcoholic beverages in pools and beaches.

The reopening of the Island’s coliseums, popular for entertainment experiences, will also be permitted at 30 percent capacity, with all attendees required to present either a vaccination card, or negative antigen test to gain admission.

“Puerto Rico has prioritized health and safety from the onset of the pandemic, becoming the first U.S. destination to implement an Island-wide curfew, among other measures developed to safeguard residents and visitors,” said Brad Dean, Discover Puerto Rico’s CEO. “As restrictions loosen, we look forward to welcoming travelers seeking to responsibly explore our island, immerse themselves in unforgettable culture, unique natural wonders and delicious cuisine, while taking advantage of the ease of travel that comes with Puerto Rico being a U.S. territory.”

  1. In my opinion, it’s time for the US to allow fully vaccinated Americans back into the country without a COVID test!!
