According to the Seychelles News Agency, anyone who presents a certificate that has completed the corona virus vaccination process will be able to enter Seychelles without the need for isolation, but will have to present a negative corona test result. The decision to present a negative result to Corona is probably due to the uncertainty regarding the chances of the vaccinated to infect others, and as an additional measure that will protect the islanders.
According to the publication, the vaccinated will be able to visit any of the islands in the country, even those that were previously closed to tourists. It is important to remember that the Seychelles economy depends quite a bit on tourism and is the first country to receive vaccinated tourists. Until the decision to make all the countries of the world red, made a few weeks ago, three airlines operated flights to Seychelles, El Al, Arkia and Air Seychelles.
According to the Ministry of Health, anyone who is vaccinated will also be able to return from Seychelles, or from any other country in the world without the need for isolation. In order to meet the criteria for receiving an exemption from isolation, it is necessary to wait a week for receiving the second dose of the vaccine, according to the Ministry of Health.
Although the Seychelles is the first country to open its doors to tourists, soon more countries are expected to take similar steps. The Foreign Ministry is currently discussing with a number of countries everything related to tourism bubble agreements that will allow vaccinated Israelis to enter their territory. Most of the countries with which there are discussions are in Europe, but there are other countries. The one that has already announced that it is expected to allow vaccinated people to enter as early as March is Cyprus, but until the decision is finally and officially made and implemented, things may change.
It is important to remember that there are quite a few other countries that allow Israelis to enter their territory, some of which require corona tests. Among the countries that allow Israelis to enter their territory are the United States, Mexico, Turkey, Ukraine, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, Panama and more.
