After a week in which thousands of people crossed the international high mountain corridor Chile to take a break and receive the New Year, and after the suspension of traffic on Saturday afternoon due to rain, the Passo del Cristo Redentore was reopened this Sunday. However, heavy movement is expected again on Route 7. Times to cross.
As long as weather conditions permit, during the 24 hours they will attend both customs complexes, with the unified immigration process. The activity will be the same for all types of vehicles.
On top of that, due to the large number of tourists traveling to the neighboring country on these dates, waits of around 5 hours or more are expected again, mostly in Los liberators, as happened this week.
The weather improved in the early hours of this Sunday, and temperatures between 1 and 9 degrees were recorded this morning.
Requirements to enter Chile
Since last September, the Trans-Andean country has relaxed the entry restrictions for non-resident foreign tourists and has stopped requesting the International Health Passport (form C19).
This summer, the requirements to enter Chilean territory are:
Argentine identity card or passport
Certificate of vaccination delivered by the country where you were vaccinated plus your ID. (over 18 years)
Unvaccinated people must present a negative PCR with a maximum of 48 hours of departure to Chile. (over 18 years)
The updated vaccination certificate will be equivalent to the Mobility Pass for non-resident foreign tourists.
It is not mandatory to have health insurance, however, it is recommended to travel with one that has covid-19 coverage.
