What travel restrictions are there for Victoria?
As you've probably heard by now, a few states and territories have imposed stricter border controls on those travelling from Victoria in the wake of those new cases announced yesterday (you can read more here).
Here's how things are looking across the country.
Victoria
Residents from Greater Melbourne can travel to regional Victoria but they must continue to abide by restrictions as if they were in Melbourne.
New South Wales
Restrictions are currently in place for non-NSW residents who have visited exposure sites in Greater Melbourne.
If non-residents have visited a close contact site, they are not allowed to enter NSW.
If non-residents have visited a casual contact site, they must have proof of a negative COVID-19 test before travelling to NSW.
South Australia
Anyone who has been at an exposure site in Greater Melbourne is banned from entering South Australia.
The ban on arrivals who have visited exposure sites does not apply to people escaping domestic violence.
Anyone who is already in South Australia but visited an exposure site at the relevant times must self-quarantine for 14 days and get a COVID-19 test on days one, five and 13.
Any traveller who has been in Greater Melbourne (not including the City of Whittlesea) in the past 14 days must also self-quarantine until a negative COVID-19 test is returned, and must get tested on days one, five and 13.
Queensland
Queensland Health has declared the City of Whittlesea a hotspot, and has announced a series of new measures for those coming into the state:
- From 1:00am on Wednesday, anyone arriving into Queensland who has been in the City of Whittlesea local government area since May 11 will go into hotel quarantine unless they have a valid exemption.
- From 1:00am on Thursday, everyone arriving from Victoria will be required to complete a border pass. Anyone who has been in the City of Whittlesea local government area since May 11 and isn't a resident will be turned away unless they have an exemption to enter the state. Queensland residents or those given an exemption to enter the state will go into hotel quarantine.
Tasmania
Due to COVID-19 cases in the community, the Whittlesea Local Government Area will be declared high-risk from 12:01am Wednesday 26 May.
Travellers who have visited an exposure site in Greater Melbourne are not permitted to enter Tasmania unless they are approved as an essential traveller.
People who are already in Tasmania who visited an exposure site must self-isolate immediately and call the Public Health Hotline for further advice.
Western Australia
As of last night, all arrivals from Victoria have to be tested within 48 hours and self-quarantine until they return a negative result.
People who arrived prior to that will not be forced to isolate as things stand, unless they have visited a potential exposure site.
Australian Capital Territory
ACT residents who have visited an exposure site in Greater Melbourne should contact ACT Health and immediately quarantine for 14 days since last attending the venue.
Non-ACT residents who have visited an exposure site must not enter the ACT unless they have an exemption.
Non-residents who are already in the ACT must immediately quarantine.
Travellers already in the ACT who have been in Greater Melbourne in the past 14 days must complete an online declaration form.
Northern Territory
Anyone who has visited an exposure site in Greater Melbourne must travel to a suitable place of quarantine and remain in that place for 14 days from the date of visiting that site.
