With Belize’s tourism industry now open to international travellers, new travel norms and guidelines have been put in place for the accommodation sector. The Belize Tourism Board’s priority in the safety of both our visitors and community is of utmost importance, which is why new operating protocols for hotels, restaurants, tour operators and tourist sites are being provided below. These guidelines were approved by the Minister of Tourism and Civil Aviation, and will serve as the foundation for addressing the new health and safety challenges presented by Covid-19.

In addition, the BTB implemented the “Tourism Gold Standard Recognition Program.” This program focuses on enhancing the hotel and restaurant cleaning practices, social interactions, workplace policies, and standard operating procedures, while ensuring minimal impact on the guest experience. For more information on this 9-point program and on the new policies, kindly see below.
