Green Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Would anyone know if international arrivals would have to quarantine at arrival city (say Sydney) for two weeks even if just transiting and then quarantine again in Hobart? Can’t seem to find out that kind of information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toots Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 A family of 2 adults and 2 children (members of this forum) had to isolate in a hotel in Melbourne for 2 weeks then again for 2 weeks in Adelaide. Probably the same for Hobart but best to check though. Tassie is fairly strict so I should think you would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toots Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 You must quarantine in the city you arrive in for 14 days, even if you plan to travel elsewhere in Australia.

NickyNook Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 And here is the info from the Tasmanian government which confirms that you need to quarantine on arrival there - even though you may have already done 14 days elsewhere. https://coronavirus.tas.gov.au/travellers-and-visitors/quarantine ...What if I have already completed quarantine interstate? The Tasmanian quarantine period is in addition to the requirement for international travellers to complete 14 days quarantine in government-designated accommodation at the port of arrival in Australia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, seems that two sets of quarantine will be needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
