Puerto Rico is committed to the fight against COVID-19. Since September 2020, it has kept its borders open to some countries (consult the list of countries without travel restrictions). It carries out health control measures that have helped keep infection rates under control.
Data show that as of today, the Puerto Rican population is 82.1% fully vaccinated and has a risk level of 4, according to the CDC.
However, Puerto Rico is following the measures recommended by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control & Prevention), which we will summarize below.
Anyone who has been in China, Iran, Brazil, the United Kingdom, India, South Africa, Ireland, or a Schengen country during the last 14 days will not be allowed to travel to Puerto Rico.
Yes, domestic travelers must present a negative result of a PCR or antigen test done no more than 72 hours before arrival in Puerto Rico.
International travelers must equally present a negative PCR or antigen test result done no more than 72 hours before arrival in Puerto Rico.
If no test is available, the traveler must have it done within 48 hours after arrival and remain isolated until the result is obtained.
Yes. The Puerto Rico National Guard assists with enhanced health screenings of all arriving passengers at each airport on the Island. All incoming travelers at the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan will be pre-screened via thermographic cameras to monitor temperatures, and enhanced protocols are in place at baggage claim before exiting the airport.

Any passenger over the age of two years without a molecular or antigen test result for COVID-19 performed within 48 hours before traveling from a domestic destination, regardless of their vaccination status, will be fined $300.
Masks are required indoors, regardless of age or vaccination status. Those unvaccinated or between the ages of 2 and 11 must also wear masks in public areas when unable to social distance. Masks are required on all public transportation, including ferries operating to and from Vieques and Culebra.
Masks are required at all outdoor activities of 500 attendees or more. This requirement does not apply to public beaches. Masks are still recommended in crowded urban areas.
Upon arrival, all guests of hotels, paradores, guesthouses, short-term rentals, and establishments serving food or drinks must require proof of vaccination or a negative test (either antigen or PCR performed by an authorized health provider) taken 48 hours before arrival. Here’s more information.
Yes. You can check here for the location of clinics in Puerto Rico.
PCR molecular testing for all travelers coming in or going out of the Island will be available for $110 and will be guaranteed results electronically within 24 to 48 hours.
Yes. If this is critical, you must confirm this with the private center you choose, but normally you can expect to receive your test upon completion or within a few hours.
Exemptions may be granted in extremely limited circumstances such as emergency travel (such as an emergency medical evacuation) to preserve a person’s life, protect their health from serious danger, or protect their physical safety, and screening cannot be completed before travel.
We recommend taking into account some considerations such as:
