56 PLACES Abu Dhabi adds Indonesia to latest Green List

- BY SAMIHAH ZAMAN Senior Reporter

Abu Dhabi has updated its ‘Green List’ of countries, regions and territorie­s, with the latest list effective from yester including 56 different places.

Compared to the previous Green List that came into effect five days ago on September 1, the new list includes Indonesia.

Last week, Abu Dhabi announced that all Covid-19 vaccinated travellers arriving in Abu Dhabi from September 5 onwards would no longer need to quarantine in the emirate.

PCR testing requiremen­ts still apply for all passengers, regardless of vaccinatio­n status and where they have travelled from. Therefore, all passengers still have to present a negative PCR test with 48-hour validity before boarding a flight.

On arrival, vaccinated travellers from Green List destinatio­ns need to take another PCR test, followed by a PCR test on Day 6 if they continue to stay in the emirate. The day of arrival counts as Day 1. Unvaccinat­ed travellers from Green List destinatio­ns will also be exempt from quarantine. These people will have to take PCR tests on arrival, and then follow up with further tests on Day 6 and Day 9.
