The Australian government has announced an end to requirements for international travellers to declare Covid-19 vaccination status.

Home Affairs Minister Clare O’Neil and Health Minister Mark Butler on Sunday announced that, from Wednesday, travellers arriving in Australia will no longer have to complete a Digital Passenger Declaration (DPD) to declare vaccination status. It marks an end to all Australia’s international travel restrictions more than two years after they were first introduced in March 2020 to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
