Chief Minister Howard Quayle says high levels of coronavirus vaccinations means the Island can relax its border restrictions.
At a press briefing today, he said from June 28, anyone who's had both jabs in the British Isles at least a fortnight earlier won't face any restrictions.
Children will be tested on arrival and will only have to isolate if their results are positive - although under-5s will be exempt from the regime.
Mr Quayle said the new travel regime strikes a balance between those who want tighter restrictions and those who want borders fully reopened.
