UAE to allow entry of silver permit holders from India and its neighbouring countries

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) will now be allowing silver residence permit holders from India and other countries in the cub-continent like Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka to enter the nation.
As per the reports, the gulf nation had been till now only allowing gold permit holders to enter the nation from the said countries. However, as per the General Civil Aviation Authority (GACA) of UAE, all travelers who are eligible to travel from these nations will be required to put on “a monitoring and tracking device”. 
Referring to this, a leading charter operator said that there are no further restrictions. 
On the contrary, the UAE is now permitting silver visa holders too, apart from golden visa holders, it added. 
Further, the visitors will be required to wear a bracelet for the 10-day quarantine; then passengers will have to undergo an RT-PCR on the fourth day, and then the eighth day. 
And if the results are negative, they will be free to go anywhere, and even take off the bracelet.
Elaborating more on this, the GCAA quarantine rules for visitors from the Indian subcontinent says that their movement will be limited between the hotel and the airport, without coming into close contact with persons of the community. Further, the UAE for now has extended travel restrictions on those travelling from India till July 6. 
The travel restriction was brought into place on April 25, when India began registering a rise in COVID cases. Emirates has also suspended passenger flights until July 6, 2021. 
And those who have transited through India in the last 14 days, they will not be accepted to travel from any other point to the UAE.
