Furthermore, other than work, student, transit or medical visa, those interested in visiting the Emirates for tourism can now plan their itinerary starting from tomorrow.

Hence, it is mandatory for all tourist passengers arriving in the UAE to take a rapid PCR test at the airport as soon as they had landed.
