UAE National Day holidays: Travel advisories issued during Covid-19
MOFAIC's travel instructions are tailored according to each country of interest
Covid-19 is causing fresh worries in Europe as the continent grapples with a fresh bout of infections.
Several European nations have imposed Covid-19 restrictions and imposed lockdowns on cities to curb the rising number of cases.
Ahead of the UAE National Day holidays the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MOFAIC) has issued travel tips for citizens to follow amidst Covid-19.
On the MOFAIC website, the travel instructions are tailored according to each country of interest, guiding UAE travellers with all the requirements they need before, during and after travel and listing the countries open for travel.
UAE nationals are advised to obtain all the requirements and adhere to the Covid-19 restrictions applied at their destination.
Upon returning, travellers must follow the UAE health measures to ensure public safety and wellbeing.
Here are a few tips to follow before, during and after travelling amid Covid-19:
Before you travel:
1. Register in Twajudi service
UAE nationals need to register in the Twajudi service, available on MOFAIC website or app, to receive any required assistance abroad from authorities.
Users can access the service in three simple steps:
- Login into UAE Pass by using an existing username and password, or create a new username.
- Tab on "Individual Services" and select Twajudi. Then, click "Start Service" to enter your travel details and submit the application.
- You will receive an SMS and an e-mail with a reference number confirming your registration.
2. Finish your PCR test
Get a PCR test done before travelling while ensuring it responds to the validity set by the country of your destination. The ministry also advises citizens to opt for an international health insurance that covers Covid-19.
3. Review Covid-19 restrictions
To ensure a smooth and easy trip, make sure you are familiar with the Covid-19 situation at your country of destination and the health regulations put in place, such as vaccination requirements, curfews, social distancing, mask rules, etc.
