Australian Government to reopen international boarders

Australian Government says it will reopen its international border from November, giving long-awaited freedoms to vaccinated citizens and their relatives.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison said people would be eligible to travel when their state’s vaccination rate hit 80%.

Since March 2020, Australia has had some of the world’s strictest border rules even banning its own people from leaving the country.

Travel would not immediately be open to foreigners, but the government said it was working towards welcoming tourists back to our shores.
