Anguilla has lifted quarantine requirements for international leisure visitors staying at hotels or villas, regardless of their length of stay. Visitors to Anguilla will be tested on arrival and must stay in place at their resort, hotel or licensed villa while awaiting their test results, which are usually delivered within 12 hours. Once they receive a negative test result, they can leave the property and explore the island. Though the mandatory four-day quarantine has been lifted, all visitors will be tested again on the fourth day of their stay.
A single testing fee of $200 will be charged from October 1, 2021, covering the arrival test and Day 4 test for all visitors; the Day 4 test can be used for onward travel requirements at no additional cost. While Anguilla is allowing entry only to fully vaccinated adult travelers, children aged 17 years and younger, and pregnant women are exempt from this requirement. A fully vaccinated traveler is one who has received the last dose of vaccine in a two-dose or one-dose vaccine protocol, at least three weeks or 21 days prior to arrival on the island.
International travelers are required to apply for "Entry Permission" via www.ivisitanguilla.com and submit a negative COVID-19 RT-PCR test taken three to five days prior to travel. Proof of vaccination must be uploaded to the entry application; the legally issued card/identification by the country administering the vaccine will be reviewed by the Anguillian authorities in order to ensure its authenticity. This entry application process will continue beyond October 1, 2021. Note: All protocols are subject to change based on the prevailing epidemiological situation in Anguilla.
Applications will not be accepted later than noon EST the day before the day of arrival. For assistance with the travel application portal, visitors may email [email protected] (allow up to 12 hours for a reply) or call 1-264-497-5666 or 1-264-584-2710, between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. EST.
Guests should follow COVID-19 protocols of business and establishments on island, which include wearing a mask in indoor public spaces; always maintaining social distancing of at least three feet between people in indoor settings; and observing proper hygiene with frequent hand washing or using hand sanitizer.
