The Tunisian National Tourist Office UK and Ireland confirmed to TTG the new rules came into effect on Saturday (26 February).

It means children up to the age of 18 no longer have to present evidence of having tested negative for Covid-19 prior to departure, or meet any vaccine certificate or passport requirements.

Fully vaccinated adult arrivals do not need to provide any evidence of a negative pre-departure test, but must be able to show a valid vaccine certificate or pass.

Adult passengers not yet fully vaccinated against Covid-19 most present evidence of either a negative PCR test for Covid-19 taken up to 48 hours prior to departure or a negative antigen test taken up to 24 hours prior to departure. They will also have to self-isolate for five days at a given address upon arrival.

Tunisia is continuing to conduct random testing of adult arrivals; anyone who tests positive from a random arrival test must self-isolate for five days or seven days in the event of persistent symptoms.

The TNTO added Tunisia’s passenger locator form "has been removed until further notice".
