22.01.2022 ARE YOU PLANNING TO TRAVEL TO TASMANIA? Tasmania is moving to a new online registration system for everyone wanting to enter the State. The G2G PASS replaces th...e current process and applies to everyone, including returning Tasmanian residents and Essential Travellers visiting for work or for compassionate or medical reasons. Upon registration and approval you will receive a QR code that is now required to enter the State. Approved travellers will also be advised of specific conditions that apply to them. Remember other quarantine and travel restrictions remain in place. Those who currently have Essential Traveller status will need to reapply through G2G PASS.

21.01.2022 COVID-19 testing is available for all Tasmanians.

Call your GP or the Public Health Hotline (1800 671 738) to request a COVID-19 test. A referral is required to be tested.
