Seeking current Zimbabwe covid travel information

[ruger375]

Hi, does anyone have any current and reliable information regarding Covid travel requirements required to get in and out of Zimbabwe? Specifically, we are trying to add on a few days after a SA safari and would like to visit Victoria Falls but conflicting information from the US Embassy in Zimbabwe and the Zimbabwe Port Health Authority has us scratching our heads on whether it is worth the risk. Our SA outfitter has quoted the US Embassy, but others say their information is not always accurate....

Thanks!

As far as I am aware, this is current.

Go for it and don’t worry too much. All these countries are about the same.

For me, the more important question is what are countries accepting as a vaccine certification. Since all we really get here in the states is the vaccine card, is that good enough? It can easily be faked. I'll be in Zim and South Africa in June and I haven't been able to find out yet if that card will suffice.

Here we are, now you can check the requirements easily.

Thanks all, and of course the US Embassy website in Zimbabwe states all departing passengers regardless of destination requirements must produce a negative covid test, this dated 4/12/22, conflicting most other information that says fully vaccinated travelers with proof via your vacc card have no testing requirements......

We just returned from Botswana we were driving not flying neither side even looked or asked for vaccination cards? Our friend that flew from Zim to Joburg last week did not have a test or provide her vaccination card. She flew British Air.

All you need is the vaccination card, which they will look at when you check in for your flight to Zimbabwe, and when You arrive in Zimbabwe. Then the same on the way out.

It’s a USA requirement to get tested before starting your way back home.

Anyone know the definition of "fully vaccinated"? Or, how many months out from a 2nd shot/booster is one not considered fully vaccinated?

 

[KHohertz]

I believe "fully vaccinated" is just the first 2 or 1 J&J shot. Boosters arent needed as far as I have heard
