Travelling from Oman to Dubai? You don’t need to take a PCR test

Muscat: Passengers travelling to Dubai are not required to take a PCR test before departing, and can instead undergo one for free on arrival in the UAE.

The measure is valid for all passengers travelling from four GCC countries to Dubai on Emirates: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman.

“You can opt to do the test on arrival at Dubai International Airport,” said Emirates in a statement. ”This is not applicable to passengers arriving by road through the Hatta border, who must take the PCR test 96 hours from the date of the test before departure.”

The test on arrival in Dubai also applies to passengers travelling from the UK and Germany.

“All passengers still have the option of taking the test 96 hours before departure in their country of origin,” added the airline.
