Hello, for Peruvians it is necessary to have a passport to enter Ecuador?
No, you can enter only with ID.
Good afternoon Nicholas… These being 12 May 2021, these are still the current requirements?
yes paul, they remain the same.
Hi Nicolas!
For domestic flights (GYE – UIO) they are asking for some proof?
Thanks.
Hello Ernest, not any proof.
This new entry requirement which allows you to enter with your complete covid vaccination card also applies to GALAPAGOS?
Not yet, Galapagos does not update its protocols yet.
And an adult person can enter with an antigen test instead of the PCR !?
Of course, this is indicated in the protocol.
Good afternoon.. Excuse the children of 4 years old also have to present the PCR test?
not estimated, so it is specified.
According to what the protocol mentions, a minor of 4 years if you must submit the test. Only those under 2 years are exempt.
“Children under two years of age and crew members are exempt from presenting a negative RT-PCR test or rapid antigen test upon arrival., or vaccination card.
Then they must present and meet the requirements.
In this case, an antigen test could be done on children since in some countries the PCR test cannot be done on minors 12 years
