Covid Regulations - KTP

When entering Bots now without a vaxx certificate you need a PCR test and then do another PCR test on border.
How is this applied entering Kgalagadi and camping on Bots side?

If you are not vaxxed you will need a PCR less than 72 hours old. They might do an additional rapid test at reception (they were doing them there last year).

Hello everyone, in June my girlfriend and I will be travelling through Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. We are both vaccinated with 2 doses, have an European covid green pass that lasts until July. However, in my case in June it will be 11 months since my second dose. My question is: will this be considered as "vaccinated" or will they at the borders look strictly at when I got my second dose and cause me problems? As I said, the pass is valid both in my country and EU. Do they actually scan the QR codes at the border? Or do we need a booster dose?

Hi all,
While I'm fully expecting Twee Rivieren border post to be open by October, with fully vaccinated traveller's no longer needing a PCR test, can we now enter Botswana at Lobatse and exit at Twee Rivieren or do we still have to enter and exit at TR?

Hello everyone...is Bots still requiring a PCR test for those that are unvaxxed? If so any hints of that changing in the next several months?

No more testing or vac certificates required

Thanks for the timely response. Is there an official letter stating this? I know I saw a Bots Govt letter from earlier in the year where things had loosened up a little, but it still mentioned testing for unvaxxed. This would be fantastic as this is the only thing holding us back from visiting in November.
