Turkey has eased travel regulations due to the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) pandemic for numerous countries, which include India, at the same time as some nations continue to stay on its Red List.
The Turkish interior ministry issued a round detailing a fresh set of travel pointers on Thursday that stated passengers arriving in Turkey from India, Bangladesh and Pakistan will either need to provide a negative RT-PCR test or evidence of administration of each dose of Covid-19 vaccine permitted by the World Health Organization (WHO).
What are the guidelines for Indian passengers?
People travelling from India or the ones who've been withinside the country in the ultimate 14 days want to compulsorily produce a negative RT-PCR test report taken no greater than seventy-two hours earlier than a landing in Turkey.
Quarantine is not mandatory for passengers travelling from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh provided they can show proof of full vaccination report. For this, individuals need to show proof of being inoculated with both doses of Covid-19 vaccines approved by WHO, with at least 14 days passed since the last dose. However, for Johnson and Johnson vaccines, proof of getting administered with one dose would suffice.
If any passengers from the three nations fail to produce the above-mentioned certificates and reports, they will be subject to a 10-day quarantine. On the 10th day, yet another RT-PCR test will be conducted and if the result comes out to be negative, the isolation will be terminated. But, if the result turns out to be positive, the person will receive treatment in accordance with the coronavirus guidelines of the Turkish health ministry.
