The advisory allows the entry of travelers from the red-zone countries after special permission from the National Command and Operation Center (NCOC). While there had been no restrictions on Pakistani citizens coming in from these countries, they were required to produce a negative PCR test for COVID-19 – a condition that is still active.
Additionally, all the passengers will be tested for rapid antigen at Pakistan’s airports regardless of negative PCR tests.
