The Laos government has begun the groundwork for reopening the country to vaccinated tourists under its new\u00a0plan, Lao Travel Green Zone.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Laotian Times<\/a> said the\u00a0reopening initiative\u00a0will see Vang Vieng, Luang Prabang, and Vientiane Capital designated as \u201cgreen zones\u201d to\u00a0safeguard the safety\u00a0of travelers and service providers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Suanesavanh\u00a0Vingaket,\u00a0the country\u2019s new Minister of Information, Culture, and Tourism, led\u00a0the Public and Private Sector Consultation Meeting on Country Reopening Plan Preparation, which gathered authorities and tourism sector stakeholders.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the Lao Travel Green Zone strategy, areas marked \u2018green\u2019 must have a population of 70-80 percent vaccinated and 90-95 percent of service providers\u00a0immunised.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Conditions for vaccinated arrivals are to include a valid certificate of entry, a vaccination certificate valid at least two weeks prior to arrival, and a negative PCR test completed 72 hours prior to departing for Laos.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tourists would be transferred to hotels via vehicles approved under the\u00a0LaoSafe\u00a0certification\u00a0programme, while they wait for their PCR test results.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Moreover, a new Contact Tracing Application is to be available to tourists called\u00a0LaoStaySafe\u00a0that offers information updates and monitors tourist movements.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Visitors in the green zone will reside at hotels approved under the\u00a0LaoSafe\u00a0programme, while tourists traveling outside such zones would be required to use transportation and book hotels that have been certified under the\u00a0programme.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
