Abu Dhabi: Quarantine exemption for vaccinated passengers

Abu Dhabi: Quarantine concession comes into effect in Abu Dhabi for vaccinated passengers. Quarantine is not required for those who have completed the vaccine and are from a country on the Green List.

However, those who are not on the green list and have not been vaccinated must comply with the 10-day quarantine. 

This is a very comforting step for expats. Many had taken two vaccines from home but had been on quarantine for 10 days and had to undergo three PCR tests. 

Etihad Airways has advised passengers to receive two doses of the vaccine 14 days before departure. There is a requirement to show the Covid Negative PCR test result taken within 48 hours of departure for both vaccinated and non-vaccinated persons.
