Foreign arrivals required to fill a self-declaration form (from the Air Suvidha web portal), including a travel history of the past 14 days.

Revised guidelines for international arrivals to India include scrapping of the category of ‘at risk’ countries and recommending self-monitoring for 14 days for symptoms in place of the present seven-day home quarantine rule.

The revised guidelines will come into effect from Monday, 14 February, India’s Health Ministry announced. The ministry stressed the “need to monitor the continuously changing” COVID-19 virus but also acknowledged that “economic activities need to be taken up in an unhindered manner”.

Foreign arrivals must also upload a negative RT-PCR test that was conducted within 72 hours of the travel date. They must also fill a self-declaration form available at the Air Suvidha web portal, including a 14-day travel history, NDTV has reported.

Alternatively, passengers arriving from 72 countries whose vaccination programmes the Indian government recognises as part of a reciprocal programme, can also upload a certificate confirming they have received both vaccine doses.
