Jamaica has further relaxed its Covid-19 travel rules by ending the requirement for international travellers to take a pre-departure test.
All visitors to the Caribbean island aged 12 and over have previously had to provide a negative lateral flow result, with the test taken within 72 hours of departure.
But this rule will be abolished from Friday (15 April), although travellers may still be tested for Covid on arrival in the country.
“All travellers arriving in Jamaica may still be tested for Covid-19 if assessed as high-risk as a result of exhibiting symptoms, exposure to people who have tested positive, belonging to a high-risk group or other risk factors,” confirmed the Foreign Office (FCDO).
“Travellers may be screened for symptoms at the airport.”
Jamaica has already enjoyed a “rapid recovery” in tourism numbers from the UK this year with more than 15,000 Britons travelling to the island in January.
Last month, the destination scrapped the requirement for arriving passengers to complete a travel authorisation form.
Jamaica has also axed rules that masks must be worn in public places, although wearing them is still advised.
