Starting February 20, all passengers flying into Bahrain will not need to take a PCR test upon arrival nor undergo quarantine.

That's according to the latest guidelines set by the Civil Aviation Affairs (CAA) of Bahrain.

Earlier, the island state had imposed mandatory quarantine for unvaccinated travellers. 

On February 4, the authorities had scrapped the need for negative PCR tests before boarding flights to Bahrain.
