In a recent development, the Indian government announced new guidelines for foreign travelers entering the country. According to the latest regulations, all international passengers, regardless of their vaccination status, will now be required to undergo RT-PCR testing upon arrival in India. The decision comes amidst concerns over the new Omicron variant of COVID-19. Travelers will also have to provide a negative RT-PCR test report conducted within 72 hours of their departure.

These countries include the United Kingdom, South Africa, Brazil, Botswana, China, Mauritius, New Zealand, Zimbabwe, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Israel. The Indian government has taken these precautionary measures to prevent the spread of the new variant within the country.
