Iran has scrapped all coronavirus-related restrictions such as pre-departure COVID test requirements for incoming flights, APA reports citing Mehr.
According to the report, unvaccinated arrivals will no longer have to take tests for visiting the Islamic Republic. It comes almost three years after the first COVID lockdown measures were imposed in the country.
Earlier in March, Tehran announced it would maintain pre-departure COVID test requirements just for non-Iranian nationals, saying: “All travelers that hold Iranian citizenship can travel home without restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Iran’s tourism sector seeks to recover to its pre-pandemic levels as a top destination for people seeking cultural attractions, sceneries, and UNESCO-registered sites.
