Fully vaccinated travellers from 11 countries with which India has reciprocal arrangements for mutual acceptance of WHO-approved Covid vaccines will not need to quarantine or get tested upon arrival in India starting October 25 if 15 days have elapsed since their full vaccination.
According to the reports, from October 25, travellers from France, the UK, Germany, Nepal, Belarus, Lebanon, Armenia, Ukraine, Belgium, Hungary and Serbia no longer have to undergo RT-PCR tests on arrival from October 25. The travellers will only have to self-monitor their health for a fortnight.
As per the fresh guidelines, those, who are fully vaccinated (at least 15 days before the day of travel), will be allowed to leave the airport and self-monitor their health for 14 days after arrival. But however, they have to upload a negative RT-PCR test report and vaccination certificates on Air Suvidha portal before boarding.
Those partially or not vaccinated have to undergo the COVID test at the airport of arrival and undergo home quarantine for seven days. A re-test will then be conducted after eight days and if the result is negative, they will have to self-monitor their health for the next seven days. These measures are applicable for passengers from the remaining part of the world irrespective of their vaccination status.
The guidelines further clarify that all travellers, including the fully vaccinated ones even from 11 countries that have reciprocity with India, will need to upload a negative RT-PCR report before boarding and this test should have been conducted within 72 hours prior to undertaking the journey.
