ENTERING THE TRNC
Please note – ORANGE/YELLOW Countries have been combined.
If you are entering the TRNC from an ORANGE, YELLOW or GREEN Country, you may enter WITHOUT quarantine having arrived with a Negative PCR test within the previous 72 hours as long as you are,
FULLY VACCINATED WITHIN THE PREVIOUS SIX MONTHS or
HAVE RECOVERED FROM THE VIRUS WITHIN THE SAME PERIOD
Please be aware that a number of countries within the Amber/Orange category, which includes the United Kingdom have now been designated as “Delta Variant Countries.”
This will mean that any traveller coming from any Delta Variant Country, will now be required to submit to one of the following tests upon arrival into the TRNC, regardless of whether that traveller has been double vaccinated or not,
- PCR Test
- Lamp Test or
- Antigen test.
Those countries are,
Austria, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Jordan, Luxembourg, Norway, Portugal, Russia, Switzerland and the United Kingdom
For those persons NOT fully vaccinated or having recovered from the Virus arriving from an ORANGE/YELLOW Country you will be required to Home Quarantine using the ‘Stay Safe’ app. This will be for a period of SEVEN days.
People meeting this criteria should download the mobile app named ‘Stay Safe’ to their mobile phone before arriving in the TRNC and complete their registration and payment procedures included in the app. The ‘Quarantine Tracking System’ is a paid application and will cost 750tl, which includes a deposit of 350tl.
More information about the quarantine tracking system can be found on the following link.
