Travel Cayman Update On Travel To The Cayman Islands 18 January 2021, 05:09 AM Covid 19 Effective Thursday 14 th January, 2021 travellers arriving in the Cayman Islands are required to show evidence of a negative COVID-19 PCR test result, taken no more than 72 hours prior to flight departure. Since the start of the pandemic the Government has been committed to the safety and protection of the Cayman Islands residents. The introduction of the pre-arrival test as a pre-screening method is another layer of protection for the community. However, it is understood that within the 72-hour period following the test it is possible to be exposed to the COVID-19 virus, therefore additional measures such as PCR testing on arrival and completion of the 14 day quarantine period is still required.
