Starting May 13, UAE citizens and residents will not need to quarantine on arrival at Seychelles when they present their vaccination certificates.

It comes after the UAE and Seychelles adopted a safe travel corridor for those fully vaccinated against COVID-19, as part of efforts towards recovery from the pandemic.

Travellers can present vaccination records either digitally via government-approved health apps, or a printed copy.

They can also upload their PCR test results through these apps, and are advised to adhere to all safety protocols in place to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
