The Turkish government has decided to remove the requirement for a PCR test for passengers in transit through airports, the Foreign Ministry said. According to a new order from the Turkish Ministry of Health, PCR tests will be eliminated when entering Turkey for drivers of heavy vehicles, and information about it is expected to be officially announced. Border guards have already been instructed not to require a PCR test document from truck drivers.
We remind you that as of December 29, 2020, the country introduced new measures, according to which all passengers over 6 years of age must present a document upon arrival due to a negative result of a PCR test carried out within the previous 72 hours to the trip. Arrivals that do not have one are subject to a mandatory 7-day quarantine, after which they must take a test, and in the event of a negative result they are released from quarantine. Citizens with a positive result will be treated according to the protocol of the Turkish Ministry of Health in a Turkish medical institution.
