Travelers No Longer Need a Test to Visit Curaçao

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - March 10, 2022

The Dutch Caribbean island of Curaçao has become the first destination in the Caribbean to completely waive testing requirements for visitors. 

The island’s new rules, which took effect March 10, mean no Covid testing at all is required before traveling to Curaçao. 

Travelers simply need to complete the island’s Digital Immigration Card online before departure.

Curaçao has also removed its “risk classifications,” which had set different rules for travelers from different countries and regions depending on their own local Covid situations. 

All travelers must also fill out Curaçao’s Passenger Locator Card 48 hours before departure, and carry a printed or digital copy with them.

It’s a significant change for Curaçao, and could be an industry-shaking move for the wider region. 

While several destinations have begun waiving pre-testing for vaccinated travelers, Curaçao’s rules have no vaccination requirement.
