Last week, Abu Dhabi announced updated rules surrounding the mandatory Covid-19 testing requirements to enter the emirate.
Entry will now be permitted within 48 hours of receiving a negative Covid-19 PCR test or within 48 hours of receiving a negative laser DPI test to screen for the virus, without the need for the DPI test to be accompanied by a PCR test.
Visitors and residents entering and staying in the emirate for six consecutive days or more must also undergo a Covid-19 PCR test on the sixth day of their stay.
