After a year and a half-plus of closed borders and restrictions, Chile will be welcoming travelers from around the world beginning on October 1. The modification of the country’s "Protected Borders Plan" will allow entry to all fully vaccinated non-resident foreigners who meet the requirements. Visitors will be able to enter through dedicated airports in Santiago, Iquique or Antofagasta.
To enter Chile, all travelers will have to complete a series of mandatory requirements, which include:
- Completion of the “Travelers’ Affidavit” form 72 hours prior to travel (www.c19.cl). The electronic form includes contact information, medical history, and previous travel history.
- Travel insurance to cover any medical expenses related to COVID-19 with a minimum coverage of $30,000 for health benefits.
- A negative COVID-19 PCR test performed within 72 hours prior to travel.
- Proof of COVID-19 vaccine, which will allow visitors to obtain the Mobility Pass issued by the Chilean Ministry of Health. The pass can be requested at mevacuno.gob.cl.
Note that upon entry, all visitors must complete a five-day isolation period at an address of their choice and presented on the country’s entry form, which may be a hotel or a residence.
