The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has lifted the ban on inbound and transit flights from Kenya.

UAE also lifted the travel bans in Tanzania, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Kongo, South Africa, Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, Mozambique, Namibia and Zimbabwe, from Saturday 29th January.

The announcement was made on Wednesday, 26th January by the middle eastern country’s National Emergency Crisis and Disasters Emergency Management Authority.

Passengers coming from these countries must now present a negative COVID-19 PCR test certificate with a QR code for a test conducted at an approved facility no more than 48 hours before departure.

They also need to present a negative COVID-19 rapid test certificate with a QR code for a test conducted at the departure airport within 6 hours before departure and conduct a PCR test upon arrival.

The announcement comes just days after Kenya lifted its seven-day suspension on all Dubai bound passenger flights after a two week ban with the UAE over fake Covid-19 certificates.

The ban however did not affect cargo flights which continued with normal operations.
