The updated list of high-risk premises, which include Victorian and New South Wales locations, can be found on the Tasmanian coronavirus website.
These locations are updated regularly.
Anyone intending to travel to Tasmania from Victoria will not be permitted to enter the state unless approved as an essential traveller.
Tasmanian residents can apply for essential traveller status to return home. If approved they will be required to quarantine at suitable premises on arrival for 14 days.
If they do not have suitable premises, they will be required to quarantine in Government-designated accommodation at their own cost.
