OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Official Government Information Sources for Travel Restrictions

[geraldkelly]

Hi

Can someone send me some links to official government websites for the US, Canada, Australia, UK and New Zealand with information about travel restrictions to and from each country?

Please note, I am only interested in official sources of information. I'm looking for the sites prospective pilgrims should use to find out about the latest travel restrictions.

Thanks in advance!
Gerald

It is worth reading this official site carefully. The Government advises against most outbound travel but there is no law or regulation that prevents outbound travel.

You also need to be able to read between the lines for inbound travel because in addition to the regulations that define who can enter ANZ you need to understand that there is also a cap on the number of people, regardless of citizenship and visa status, who can enter ANZ and currently the number of people wanting to come in far exceeds the number permitted to come in and so unless you have a diplomatic passport you need to wait until a space opens up.

Open places are allocated randomly and so the process has the appearance of a lottery.

Thanks. All I need is the official sites, I'm compiling a list of them. I don't need any further information.

www.australia.gov.au. Be aware that each state in Australia has its own website. It should be the state name and have.gov.au
I say this because at present different states have different restrictions. Good luck

Smart Traveller website in Australia. Most travel restrictions have been lifted from DO NOT TRAVEL, to exercise a high degree of caution.

I'm also interested in this question. Specifically official Spanish, Portuguese and French sites about what is required to travel to those countries.

There's a couple of sites which are good, official and up-to-date. The EU runs reopen.europa.eu There's lots of info on there and links to sites in the different countries.

Also Ryanair have a list of government sites for all the countries they fly to www.ryanair.com/ie/en/useful-info/map-page

This isn't an official government site, but it seems to have accurate information: https://apply.joinsherpa.com/travel-restrictions

Don't forget this list, pinned to the top of the Covid section.

That post has been updated now, since some of the links were not functioning anymore.
