Unvaccinated travellers need approval to enter the State.  Fully vaccinated travellers aged 12 years and two months and older, travelling from low-risk areas (domestic and overseas) will not need to quarantine on arrival in Tasmania. Travellers who have spent time in a high-risk area (domestic and overseas) in the 14 days before their arrival in Tasmania will need to have a negative COVID-19 PCR test result conducted within 72 hours before departure to Tasmania. This applies to all travellers aged 5 years and above. (The testing requirement will not apply to travellers who have been out of Tasmania for 7 days or less). Travel details can be registered through the Tas e-Travel system from 12 December 2021 and can be registered up to 7 days before arrival in Tasmania. Registered travellers will receive a QR code for scanning on arrival in Tasmania. Proof of COVID‑19 vaccination and a negative COVID-19 PCR test result (for travellers from high-risk areas) may also be requested by authorised officers upon arrival. Travellers who do not have a QR code or cannot provide evidence of vaccination status or a negative COVID‑19 PCR test result (for travellers from high-risk areas) on arrival will be directed to quarantine in suitable premises or a government managed facility (where fees may apply). Travellers from low-risk areas (domestic or overseas), who are required to quarantine as a result of not having evidence of vaccination, will be able to leave quarantine once evidence of COVID‑19 vaccination is provided. Travellers arriving from high-risk areas (domestic or overseas) will need to provide evidence of COVID‑19 vaccination and can leave quarantine once they provide evidence of a negative COVID-19 PCR test. If a traveller is unable to provide vaccination evidence or a negative COVID-19 PCR test result, they will require approval by the Deputy State Controller to remain in quarantine.
