Hong Kong has finally put a date to her move to ease quarantine for fully vaccinated inbound travellers - and the relaxation of its strict inbound policy will begin on May 12.
This decision was announced today, after it first revealed its intention in mid-April to shorten mandatory quarantine for fully vaccinated visitors from low-risk countries to just seven days, down from 14.
This will benefit fully vaccinated travellers from countries such as Australia, New Zealand and Singapore. They will be required to self-monitor for an additional week.
Those from high- and medium-risk areas will serve a 14-day quarantine, instead of 21 days, in addition to another week of self monitoring.
Those coming from extremely high-risk areas will still have to fulfill a 21-day quarantine, even if they are inoculated against Covid-19.
