Quarantine rules for Indian passengers flying to Abu Dhabi

File Picture

Passengers flying into Abu Dhabi from India will have to quarantine for 12 days and wear an electronic wristband during the time.

That's according to the travel guidelines published on Etihad Airway's website, which said the wristband will be provided by the authorities at the airport after clearing immigration.

A PCR test is mandatory 48-hours before flying and RT-PCR test four hours before boarding the flight.

Another PCR test must be taken on arrival, then again on day six and day eleven.

All previously issued rules concerning ICA approval and vaccinated records remain unchanged.
