You're supposed to get a PCR test 72 hours before travelling to Tas. Proof of negative test apparently not required but guess they may do random checks.Β I'm travelling (via ferry) on 16th so may make Day 4. In this series I'm not banking on it lasting that long π Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
