New rules for international passengers on flights from UK, Europe & Middle East from February 23

NEW DELHI: The government has issued new guidelines for all incoming international travellers coming from or after transiting through flights originating from United Kingdom, Europe and Middle East.
From February 23, these travellers will be mandatorily subjected to self-paid confirmatory molecular tests on arrival at the airport of entry in India.
The Union aviation and health ministries have made these changes to contain the spread of the more infectious UK, South African and Brazilian variant of Covid virus.
All passengers will be required to submit a self declaration form (SDF) for Covid on online Air Suvidha portal — www.newdelhiairport.in — and must disclose their travel history of past 14 days.
