Safe Travels Program Has Ended
Updated: March 26, 2022
To our Future Guests, Homeowners, and Visitors,
For domestic travelers to the state of Hawaii, the Safe Travels program has ended. What does that mean? It means that you will no longer need to show proof of a COVID-19 vaccination or a pre-travel negative test result. You will no longer be required to create a Safe Travels account or provide traveler information and trip details to the state.

LATEST UPDATES
As of March 26, 2022, domestic travelers will no longer need to register on the Safe Travels website to visit Hawaii. Travelers will not need to show proof of a negative COVID-19 test or vaccination/booster proof.
The popular, Washington DC based site Wallethub recently compared five key metrics to come up with a 100-point system to rank the safety of each state in America. The key metrics were transmission rate, positive testing rate, hospitalization rate, COVID-19 death rate, and highest & lowest vaccination rate. Based on their findings, Hawaii was ranked the safest state during COVID followed by California 2nd and Virginia 3rd. Read the full article HERE.
As of January 3, 2022 the mandatory quarantine period has been reduced from 10 days to 5 days with the first day of quarantine starting on the day of your arrival. This applies to all incoming travelers who do not have a pre-travel test result or are not fully vaccinated.
For COVID-19 positive travelers, regardless of vaccination status, they must isolate for at least 5 days and until symptoms are gone. They must also continue to wear a mask for five days after isolation.
Lastly, as of January 4th, the completion of the Health Questionnaire prior to departure will no longer be required. Visitors and returning residents need only comply with the rules for either vaccination exemption or “trusted partner” testing exemption.For more details, visit the Hawaii Department of Health website HERE.
VACCINATION & CASE STATS
In Hawaii, 87% of the population has received at least one vaccination dose and 77% of the Kauai population is vaccinated (1+ dose). Infection rates are at 1.17 and positive test rates on Kauai are 3.2%. For the most up to date information, visit USAFacts.org and covidactnow.org.
