FURTHER updates to Jersey’s Safer Travel Policy have been confirmed.
From Tuesday 4 January, passengers aged 12 and over will be required to complete a pre-departure travel form within 48 hours before arriving into Jersey, while the enhanced testing and isolation requirements for those who have travelled outside the Common Travel Area will no longer apply.
All passengers will be subject to the same requirements regardless of travel history, unless they have visited a UK red list country.
Additionally, the definition of ‘fully vaccinated’ will be updated to mean adults who have had three doses plus a two-week interval (or ‘two-plus-two’ for children aged 12 to 17).
Passengers who are not fully vaccinated can either complete a negative pre-departure PCR test within 72 hours before travel to Jersey or have a free PCR Test on arrival and isolate until a negative result is received. This will now also include those who have recently recovered from a Covid infection which will no longer be accepted as an alternative to being fully vaccinated.
