Under its travel and return policy, Qatar introduced the green, yellow and red lists, which categorize countries based on their level of COVID-19 risk.
In addition to these countries, six countries India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka and the Philippines have been grouped under the 'Special Risk 6-Country Zone.’
Anyone traveling from the six countries will follow these rules: those vaccinated/recovering from COVID-19 in Qatar are subject to two-day hotel quarantine and are allowed to leave the hotel on the second day if the result of the PCR test is negative. The rest of the people are subject to hotel quarantine for a period of 10 days.
