In a recent development in India, the government has announced new guidelines for foreign travelers arriving in the country. The new rules require all international passengers to submit a self-declaration form on the online Air Suvidha portal before their scheduled travel. This form will include details of their travel history in the past 14 days and their health status. Additionally, travelers must upload a negative RT-PCR test report on the portal, which should be conducted within 72 hours of the journey. Upon arrival, passengers will undergo thermal screening, and those found symptomatic will be required to undergo testing. The guidelines also state that passengers coming from the United Kingdom, Europe, and the Middle East must undergo a self-paid confirmatory molecular test upon arrival in India. Furthermore, passengers from Brazil and South Africa will be mandatorily subjected to institutional quarantine. These new guidelines are aimed at preventing the spread of new COVID-19 variants and ensuring the safety of the Indian population. Travelers are advised to stay updated on the latest regulations and follow all safety protocols during their journey. The government continues to monitor the situation closely and make necessary adjustments to the guidelines as needed.
