Travel into WA

Thanks Rocco
I understand your comment “ a bloke on the forum” and agree with it wholeheartedly, but sometimes a simpler explanation of the rules helps.
We also don’t want to get stranded , but older age of vehicle, camper and self means a couple more years and we won’t be able to do it physically.
Hope thing work out for you with your planned trip.
Safe travels... be it inside your state or in the greater Aussie outback

Hi Murray,

I feel for you, but as Rocco has suggested, “a guy on a forum”. You are most likely only going to get opinions on what rules mean, rather than explanations. You are better to ask questions on the various State Government Websites and COVID-19 hot lines rather than a forum.

Good luck with your trip.

Macca.

Thanks Macca
I will sit down and re-study all the Covid and State sites again. Asking their FAQ sections the questions that I require an answer for.
As I hinted at the onset , I was really only being lazy and picking the combined brain of everyone on the forum.
Safe Covid free travels to you also

Thanks HKB
A quick look into the WA permit site and I discovered they are currently operating under Code 3/ Type 3/Regulation 3 or some similar name. This basically means NO permits will be issued.
So as per your comment, those inland/outback roads are theoretically a no-no.
The WA “Covid travel” site also basically tells you that unless your state is absolutely Covid free for 28 days, you, will not get in unless you fit a very small exempt criteria, even then you need to apply for a G2G permit.

Hope this helps anyone else looking at escaping the “Eastern States”.
For those in Victoria I hope the “entitled” tennis fraternity doesn’t ruin any plans you might be considering.
We are currently looking at northern NSW and QLD as an alternative to the chilly Victorian ( read Ballarat ) weather.
Stay safe, stay healthy and happy travels
Thank you to all who replied

Your reading of current rules is the same as mine. The only problem as I see it , is if SA or NT has a new case in that fortnight you are back in deep p*# , and not in your home state.
Oh, well, at least we’re still alive and able to plan
Thanks for your input
Safe travels

It is all a case of as you say , staying flexible but, the planning is good fun and it’s amazing just what you learn about your own country/state just in the trip research.
As has been said, WA is letting you in IF you have been 14 days or more in SA or NT so a suggestion is that on travelling through these states keep every receipt and docket, stay in Caravanparks ( god forbid ) , take lots of photos including identifiable landmarks, etc. etc.etc.
Hope your plans also come to a suitable conclusion, good luck.
Safe travels
Murray
