Travellers arriving from the above 10 countries will have to submit a negative RT-PCR test certificate along with a QR code issued within 48 hours of the sample being collected at an approved health facility.
They will also have to submit a Rapid PCR test report along with a QR code for the test to be done at the departure airport within six hours of departure.
Meanwhile, passengers travelling from countries other than these 10 destinations must have a negative RT-PCR test certificate, taken not more than 72 hours before departure.
The Dubai-based carrier said passengers travelling to Dubai from Bangladesh, Nigeria, Vietnam, Zambia and Indonesia as their final destination will not be accepted for travel without meeting the COVID-19 testing requirements.
