With the full reopening of international borders on July 1, normal clearance functions on foreign vessels and aircrafts imposed during the covid-19 period will return to usual authorities.
This means the Comptroller of Customs will assume control of coordinating clearance of all foreign vessels entering the country using the remote clearance method until it is safe to return to the normal boarding of vessels to conduct clearance.
All foreign vessels that only enter the country to offload or load cargos, fuel or gas are not required to have their crews checked for COVID-19 prior to entry into Solomon Islands.
