GOB Scraps The Health App

In other news tourism news, the BTB is announcing that the Government of Belize has decided to scrap the Belize Travel Health App.

That means travellers will no longer have to download and complete the online form prior to the arrival in Belize. Many had complained that it was a bothersome formality without much on- the- ground utility.

Belize still requires that travelers provide either proof of full COVID-19 immunization received at least 2 weeks prior to arrival; a negative COVID-19 PCR test taken within 96 hours of travel; or a negative rapid test taken within 48 hours of travel. Additionally, international tourists must book at a Gold Standard hotel and present confirmation at immigration.
