Grenada: COVID-19-related restrictions remain largely unchanged as of Aug. 23 /update 33

Event

As of Aug. 23, the COVID-19-related restrictions in effect in Grenada remain largely unchanged.

International Travel Restrictions
While different entry requirements are in force for fully vaccinated and unvaccinated travelers arriving in Grenada, the following restrictions continue to apply to all international arrivals:

• All travelers must complete an online application to receive a Pure Safe Travel Authorization Certificate, which should be presented at the airport when entering Grenada. This application must be submitted at least 48 hours before departure. Proof of payment for a second COVID-19 PCR test taken after arrival is required to complete the application.

• Travelers over the age of five must present a negative result from a PCR test taken no more than 72 hours prior to departure for Grenada.

• All individuals are subject to advanced health screenings upon arrival.

• Non-residents must have travel medical insurance that covers COVID-19-related illness.

Individuals who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 at least 14 days prior to travel are allowed to enter Grenada and required to quarantine for up to 48 hours. These travelers must still present a negative PCR test result issued within 72 hours prior to arrival and must take another COVID-19 test at the airport upon arrival. Their quarantine will end once they receive a negative result from the second test. Fully vaccinated travelers must book an approved Pure Safe Travel accommodation for a minimum of two nights.

In most cases, unvaccinated travelers are only allowed to enter if they are residents or citizens of Grenada. They must quarantine for 7-14 days and be tested on day five after arrival. If the test result is negative, they may leave quarantine after completing seven days in isolation. Persons testing positive will have to repeat tests and will only be able to end their quarantine period following health clearance. Unvaccinated travelers must confirm a reservation at an approved Pure Safe Travel accommodation for a minimum of seven nights for observation and quarantine.

After receiving medical clearance, all travelers will be required to self-monitor daily until the 14th day of their stay in Grenada using the relevant self-monitoring mobile application.

Domestic Measures
As of Aug. 23, domestic restrictions remain unchanged. A state of emergency is in place until November. A nightly 00:01-04:00 curfew is in effect; only employees in essential services are permitted to be outdoors during curfew hours. Commercial activity has resumed with restrictions in place, and most businesses must close by 22:00. Social gatherings, weddings, and funerals are allowed with no more than 20 people in attendance. Individuals are required to wear facemasks in all public spaces and must observe physical distancing protocols.

The Grenadian government could reimpose international travel restrictions or tighten, ease, or otherwise amend the existing travel requirements and curfew measures with little-to-no notice, depending on disease activity over the coming weeks.
