Pakistan on Tuesday revised rules for passengers travelling from the UAE and other countries from Wednesday, December 8.
The National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) of Pakistan has announced that all inbound passengers will have to carry Covid-19 PCR test with a validity of less than 48 hours. Earlier, international travellers were asked to carry PCR tests with a maximum validity of 72 hours.
The decision comes following the outbreak of the new variant of the coronavirus Omicron in more than 30 countries.
Importantly, Pakistan has announced travel ban from 16 countries following the outbreak of Omicron. Pakistan banned unvaccinated air travellers, too, from entering the country from October 1, 2021. However, the country exempted its citizens from submitting PCR tests provided they substantiate with a reason for the exemption.
Asad Umar, Pakistan's minister for planning, development and special initiatives, last week announced that the government has decided to re-intensify the vaccination campaign across the country by utilising extra resources due to the impending threat of Omicron.
