Can anyone confirm that UK Citizens are not allowed in the BVI at all?

Hi Monk

UK Citizens are not currently allowed to go ANYWHERE outside of the UK on vacation. The only reason we can leave are compassionate grounds or business. That is due to change 17th May all being well.

The BVI allows UK citizens who have residence or work permits in, but not tourists.

I believe there is some confusion in this thread. There are no specific restrictions for UK *citizens*.

The BVI restricts the entry of "persons travelling from the UK" regardless of their citizenship. See https://bvi.gov.vg/media-centre/travel-ban-imposed-dominican-republic-and-uk-travellers

The UK restricts the departure from the UK of UK residents who donĀ“t have "a reasonable excuse" to leave the UK. See https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronav...ng-abroad-during-stay-in-uk-restrictions

Strange to restrict anyone from the UK. They currently have one of the lowest overall covid rates and a high vaccination rate.

So could they go stay somewhere else for a couple days then come into BVI under new "Q" rules since they wouldn't be coming directly from UK?

you would need to be out the UK for at least 14 days
