Cyprus Ministry of Transport informs Cypriots or Cypriot residents returning from countries classified in the red category with regard to Covid-19, should present a negative PCR test done three days before traveling or enter a three-day quarantine.
In a press release, the Ministry said in case Cypriots arrive home with no negative PCR as required, they will be asked to take a PCR test upon arrival, enter into a three-day self- isolation at the end of which they will be called on to take an additional PCR test with negative result which they should sent to monada@mphs.moh.gov.cy.
The Ministry added that self-isolation will be avoided if Cypriots or Cypriot residents arriving from a country classified in the red category present a negative PCR test done within 72 hours before travelling back to Cyprus.
Under government decisions all passengers coming to Cyprus from countries classified in the red zone category have to undertake a PCR test upon their arrival.
Furthermore, the Ministry recalled that according to a decision taken by the Council of Ministers on February 17, all passengers arriving from the United Kingdom until March 31 2021 will be quarantined for seven days in venues designated by the Republic of Cyprus with the cost undertaken by the state.
