MELBOURNE: Quarantine-free travel from New Zealand to Australia will resume from Monday, Australia's tourism minister said on Sunday , as the country readies itself for a partial reopening of its international borders for the first time since March 2020.
For now, however, only tourists from neighbouring New Zealand will be allowed into Australia, provided they are vaccinated. Australia closed its borders at the start of the pandemic, allowing only a limited number of citizens and permanent residents to return from abroad, subject to a mandatory 14-day quarantine period in a hotel at their own expense.
