New Zealand said it will end its quarantine requirements for incoming travelers and reopen its borders. Most incoming travelers need to spend 10 days in a quarantine hotel room run by the military, a requirement that created a bottleneck at the border.
The border changes mean that vaccinated New Zealanders returning from Australia will no longer need to go into quarantine from the end of this month, and vaccinated New Zealanders returning from the rest of the world can skip quarantine by mid-March. They will still be required to isolate at home.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said she knows many people associate the border controls with heartache but they have undeniably saved lives. She said the controls “meant not everyone could come home when they wanted to. But it also meant that COVID could not come in when it wanted to, either.”
