UAE Airline Companies New PCR Testing Rule for Indian Travellers

Emirates Airline and Etihad Airways have emphasized that travellers from India need to ensure their negative test results, from authorised labs that generate a QR code, have a 48-hour validity before they board their flights

"The UAE government will accept Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT PCR) laboratory results from any lab authorised by the government of India," Emirates said, adding, "Laboratory results will only be accepted from authorised labs that generate a QR code linked to the original report."

It comes as India recorded the world’s biggest single-day rise in COVID cases at 314,835 on Thursday.

Several countries like the US, Hong Kong, Australia and the UK have already issued fresh travel advisories for those flying in from India.
