The Honorable Andrew Furey, Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador, today announced temporary changes to the Atlantic Bubble travel protocol.
Effective 12:01 am on Wednesday, November 25, people arriving in Newfoundland and Labrador from within the Atlantic Bubble will be required to self-isolate for 14 days.
Atlantic Bubble travelers will not have to apply for a travel exemption at this time. If anyone within that group has extenuating circumstances making the 14 days of self-isolation impossible, there will be an option to apply for testing to possibly shorten it. Details of this application process will be rolled out over the next few days.
Updates on these temporary changes related to the Atlantic Bubble will be provided in two weeks.
Non-essential travel outside of Newfoundland and Labrador is not recommended at this time.
