The Bali Tourism Agency has declared that international visitors are now permitted to travel outside of Bali's three designated green zone regions.

Following the recent reopening of the international travel corridor for international visitors from 19 countries in order to revive Bali's economic crisis, the Head of Bali's Tourism Agency, Putu Astawa, confirmed that visitors who test negative for Covid-19 will be able to visit areas of the island other than the three designated green zone areas of Nusa Dua, Sanur, and Ubud.

This approval was granted after taking into account all of the safety measures that have been put in place, as well as the severe international border entry criteria for travellers. "After 5 days of quarantine, each tourist must pass multiple screening steps, including producing documentation of a Covid-19 vaccination and proving negative with a PCR test." So, it should be enough to keep them safe from Covid-19 during their vacation." Astawa stated this on Tuesday (12/10).

Meanwhile, government officials have put thousands of PeduliLindungi QR codes throughout the island's tourism sites. Tourism sites such as tourist attractions, hotels, retail malls, and cafes to keep them from reaching capacity and causing crowds while they are open. "7,000 of the 10,000 PeduliLindungi QR codes that we planned to deploy in all tourism locations have already been installed." So, in the near future, tourists can use the PeduliLindungi tracing app before approaching those locations." Astawa concluded.
