Tourists and visitors to Dubai will receive a special sticker on their passports that will read 'A warm welcome to your second home', authorities announced on Monday.

As Dubai prepares to welcome tourists from July 7 onwards, the General Directorate of Residency and Foreign Affairs (GDRFA) has launched the special sticker to make tourists feel at home in the emirate. The immigration authorities have also put in place high safety standards at all Dubai airports, Dubai Media Office tweeted.

Visitors should do a PCR test with a maximum validity of four days (96 hours) ahead of the date of departure to prove that they are Covid-negative before boarding. Tourists with Covid-negative certificates can enter Dubai and explore the city without having to undergo a quarantine or isolation period.

If they cannot provide proof, they will undergo a PCR test at the airport. Visitors and tourists should also have a valid health insurance to enter the country. It is also mandatory to fill the 'Health Declaration Form' before embarking the journey.
