Travelling from interstate

All non-essential travellers arriving at Territory borders, including returning Territorians, must now undertake 14 days forced quarantine at a designated location closest to entry point, where they will be monitored and accommodated for the duration.

If you are travelling with a pet, arrangements must be made to accommodate your pet prior to arriving in the NT and entering your designated quarantine accommodation. Arrangements are at your own expense. It is the owners responsibility to ensure all vaccinations are current.

New quarantine rules

If you arrive before 11:59pm on Friday 3 April, accommodation expenses will be covered by government.

If you arrive after 11:59pm on Friday 3 April, accommodation expenses will be covered by you.

Exemptions apply for individuals engaged in specific work with specific skills.

Read about border controls to see if you qualify for an exemption and to find out how restrictions will be enforced.

Essential travellers

Caravans and motorhomes

Caravan and motorhome holidaymakers are strongly urged to cancel their holiday plans to the Northern Territory.

All arrivals, including Territory residents, will be screened.

If you are deemed a non-essential visitor, you will be required to quarantine for 14 days at a hotel in the nearest township – not a campsite with shared amenities.

Flights

If you are flying, you should contact your airline to check the status of your flights.

When flying, you should practise good hygiene to slow the spread.

Remote communities

Only essential travel is allowed to remote communities in the Northern Territory.
