The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) updated its website with the new list of countries classified as low risk of COVID-19. This change will come into effect starting Sunday 15th November, 2020.

Home quarantine for a week after arriving can be chosen by travellers arriving from a low-risk country. Other travellers coming from a country not on the MoPH updated list must quarantine at a government-approved hotel for a week, and then at home for another week.
The list of low-risk countries will be reviewed every two weeks, as always. If the traveller obtains a COVID-free certificate from one of the accredited COVID-19 testing centres in one of these low-risk countries, they are exempted from taking the test at the airport upon arrival in the country, provided that the date of obtaining the certificate does not exceed 48 hours before travelling.
Please also note that arrivals from countries that are not included in the list of low-risk countries and in which COVID-19 testing centres have been accredited are required to obtain a virus-free certificate no more than 48 hours before travelling.
