In the view of surge in cases of omicron variant of coronavirus, the Civil Aviation Authority, on the instructions of National Command and Operation Center on Tuesday made Rapid Antigen Tests (RAT) of passengers arriving in Pakistan from European countries mandatory.

However, there is a relaxation in the rule in the case of flights arriving from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) as the passengers of only 50 percent of flights from these countries will have to undergo the test.

At the same time, the CAA has also made it obligatory for those due to travel to Pakistan to undergo PCR tests 48 hours before boarding a flight.

Similarly, coronavirus test has also been made mandatory for passengers aged 15 or above.

And in case any passenger tests positive for the virus on arrival at the airport, he or she will have to spend 10 days in quarantine at a place designated by the government for the purpose.

However, if the passenger prefers to quarantine at a hotel or any other private place, he or she will have to bear its expenses himself or herself.
