COVID 19 New Travel Restrictions in Specific Countries

COVID 19 has wreaked havoc on the travel world. Some countries currently have quite strict travel restrictions, while others are at least asking Americans and people from other countries to quarantine or provide negative COVID test results when they arrive.

It can be difficult to know which countries have stricter requirements than others, which is why the following information will be beneficial to you.

5 Countries with the Strictest Travel Restrictions

Canada

Canada has one of the strictest travel restrictions in place, thanks to COVID 19. Currently, only permanent residents of the country and their immediate family members can enter the country. They must not be showing any symptoms or be positive for COVID. They must also plan on staying in the country for at least fifteen days before leaving again. The border between Canada and the US is still closed unless a person is traveling for essential business.

 Sint Maarten

 No one is allowed to enter Sint Maarten. That means no flights or cruise ships can arrive at this island country at any time now or in the near future. There is also a daily curfew in place for those living there.

 Morocco

 Morocco is currently under a state of emergency, and all the border checkpoints are closed. The only items that can get through the checkpoints are those that are considered shipments of cargo. Therefore, no one can enter this country from any other country in the world.

 Paraguay

 Anyone from foreign countries is not allowed to enter Paraguay during their current travel restrictions. All international flights have been canceled, and the land border checkpoints are permanently closed until further notice. A person that does manage to get granted permission to enter Paraguay must quarantine for fourteen days.

Curacao

 Currently, no one can travel to Curacao, thanks to the COVID 19 travel restrictions. There is also a twenty-four-hour curfew in place for those who do live in this country.
