Havana, April 8. The Ministry of Health announced that in correspondence with the international and national epidemiological situation of COVID-19 and the levels of immunization achieved, it has been decided to make the following modifications to the requirements for entering the country:
Eliminate as a requirement the presentation of a test for COVID-19 (antigen test or PCR-RT) carried out in the country of origin, as well as the anti-COVID-19 vaccination certificate.
The collection of samples for the study of SARS CoV-2 (free) will be maintained randomly from travelers at the points of entry to the country, taking into account the number of flights, the entry of ships and the epidemiological risk that the country of origin represents.
If the sample taken at the point of entry is positive, it will proceed according to the protocols approved.
All flows and measures implemented at all points of entry into the country that guarantee social distancing and the disinfection of hands and surfaces, as well as the mandatory use of the mask, are maintained.
