The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has updated its 'Guidelines for International Arrivals' in response to the observed decline in the COVID-19 pandemic.
These guidelines apply to international travelers and entry points (airports, seaports, and land borders) from July 20, 2023.
Travelers are advised to be fully immunized against COVID-19 according to their country's primary vaccination schedule.
During flights and at all entry points, announcements should be made about the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and precautionary measures (such as mask use and physical separation).
Any traveler exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms will be isolated, required to wear a mask, and separated from other passengers. They will be transferred to an isolation facility for further care. Physical distance should be maintained during debarking.
At the entry point, health officials will conduct thermal screenings on all passengers.
