JEDDAH: The quarantine time for vaccinated travelers arriving from countries not on Abu Dhabi’s “green-list” has been cut to five days, emirates authorities announced on Sunday.
People will still be required to take a PCR test on arrival, followed by another on the fourth day after their arrival.
Vaccinated travelers from countries not on the green-list were previously required to quarantine for 10 days.
Non-vaccinated travelers from non-green-list countries will be required to quarantine for 10 days and take a PCR test on arrival, followed by another test eight days later.
Under Abu Dhabi’s COVID-19 regulations, travelers from green-list countries are not expected to quarantine.
Vaccinated travelers arriving from green-list countries must take a PCR test on arrival and six days after, while non-vaccinated travelers must undergo a PCR test on arrival, followed by two more on day six and 12 after their arrival.
The protocol also applies to all vaccinated UAE citizens and residents of Abu Dhabi who received their second vaccine at least 28 days earlier — documented in the vaccine report on Alhosn app.
