(Updated) Visitors From These States Must Quarantine When Traveling To Rhode Island

If you are coming to Rhode Island from one of the 38 states listed below with a COVID-19 positivity rate of greater than 5%, you are required to self-quarantine for 14 days while in Rhode Island. As an exception, you may provide proof of a negative test for COVID-19 that was taken within 72 hours prior to arrival in Rhode Island.

If you receive a test during your quarantine in Rhode Island and get a negative test result, you can stop quarantining. However, you still need to self-monitor for symptoms of COVID-19 for 14 days, wear a mask in public, and follow physical distancing guidelines. You also must quarantine while waiting for a negative test result. (Updated 11/9/20)
