Australian states will be able to reopen to international travellers in November once they hit their 80% vaccination targets, under a plan outlined by Scott Morrison on Friday.

The plan would see states follow the New South Wales lead in allowing travel for vaccinated passengers with pre-flight Covid testing and one week of home quarantine.

Seven-day home quarantine for Australian citizens and permanent residents fully vaccinated with a vaccine approved for use in Australia or recognised" by the Therapeutic Goods Administration.

Fourteen-day hotel quarantine for anyone not vaccinated or vaccinated with a vaccine not approved or recognised by the TGA, with increased arrival caps for these travellers
