If you’re planning to travel to Massachusetts from New Jersey, you better know the rules. New Jersey has been added to the Massachusetts quarantine list, meaning you have to quarantine for 14-days, report your visit or get tested. Failure to comply with the state’s rules can land you a $500 fine.
Here are the rules:
All visitors entering Massachusetts, including returning residents, who do not meet an exemption, are required to:
- Complete the Massachusetts Travel Form prior to arrival, unless you are visiting from a lower-risk state designated by the Department of Public Health.
- Quarantine for 14 days or produce a negative COVID-19 test result that has been administered up to 72-hours prior to your arrival in Massachusetts.
If your COVID-19 test result has not been received prior to arrival, visitors, and residents must quarantine until they receive a negative test result.
Failure to comply may result in a $500 fine per day.
