WA Premier Mark McGowan said international arrivals will still be required to return a negative COVID test 72 hours before departure and undertake a PCR test within 48 hours of arrival into Perth, as well as on day six.
It comes as Mr McGowan announced the date of the state’s border reopening, which is set for February 5. “If they are double vaccinated, there will be no requirement for quarantine; unvaccinated or those who’ve not had an approved vaccine will still be required to undertake 14 days of quarantine,” Mr McGowan said.
