India and Pakistan are among four countries removed from Bahrain’s Red List, effective Friday, 3 September. The Civil Aviation Affairs (CAA) has updated a Red List of countries from which travellers are banned to enter the Kingdom as part of measures to contain the spread of COVID-19.
Likewise, Panama and the Dominican Republic will no longer be on the list, as per Civil Aviation Affairs (CAA) travel advisory update. Meanwhile, five countries – Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, Ethiopia, Costa Rica, and Ecuador – are added to the Red List in addition to the countries already on it.
Countries on the list are Sri Lanka, Tunisia, Georgia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, Ethiopia, Costa Rica, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Philippines, Nepal, Myanmar, Iran, Iraq, Malaysia, Vietnam, Mongolia, South Africa, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Mozambique, Malawi, Ukraine and United Mexican States.
Red list countries are modified based on an assessment made by the National Medical Taskforce for Combatting the Coronavirus (COVID-19) and is periodically reviewed in line with international developments.
Pre-arrival PCR tests are no longer required for those entering the Kingdom from non-Red List countries whose vaccination certificates are recognised. All passengers arriving in Bahrain will still have to take PCR tests on arrival and on the fifth and tenth days after their stay.
Passengers from Red List countries, including those who have transited through Red List countries in the preceding 14 days, are prohibited from entry, except for citizens or residents of the Kingdom of Bahrain. All other travel procedures for arrivals from non-Red List countries remain in place.
Additionally, all other travel procedures for citizens and residents arriving in Bahrain from Red List countries remain in place, including presenting a valid PCR test, done no more than 48 hours before boarding to the Kingdom.
