ABU DHABI / WAM

The United Arab Emirates has welcomed the decision by the Kingdom of Denmark to lift the temporary suspension on flights originating from the UAE starting from February 7.
The decision by Danish authorities to require travellers from all countries to receive a negative PCR test result 24 hours prior to travel and quarantine for a period of ten days upon arrival, is in line with measures the UAE has successfully implemented since the onset of Covid-19 pandemic.
Commenting on the announcement, Ambassador Fatima Khamis Salem Khalfan Almazrouei, UAE Ambassador to Denmark, remarked: “The UAE appreciates steps by Danish authorities to implement measures that strengthen broader international efforts to combat the Covid-19 pandemic. UAE authorities have worked closely with their Danish counterparts in this regard and remain committed to exchanging information and best practices in the shared global fight against the virus.”
