Saudi Interior Ministry says masks should not be worn in open spaces The ministry said quarantine was not mandatory for those coming to Saudi Arabia. The Interior Ministry said it had lifted all Kovid controls in Saudi Arabia.

In the wake of the decline in the spread of the Kovid and the increase in vaccination rates, the UAE in the Gulf followed the UAE in allowing the removal of the mask in the open. However, the Home Ministry said that the mask should be worn in closed areas. There is no need to keep social distance in sports, cultural and tourism activities. The requirement that those coming to Saudi Arabia stay in the quarantine was also waived. The entry ban has been lifted for countries such as South Africa and Namibia. PCR and antigen tests are not required before leaving for Saudi Arabia. Visitors must ensure health insurance. At the same time, social distance was eliminated in all mosques, including the Haram Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah. Prior permission is no longer required to enter churches. But the mask is mandatory for those who attend churches. You must show the Immune Status on the Tavakkalna app when entering institutions. Tawakkalna immunity is also mandatory for public transport. Currently, the number of Kovid victims in Saudi Arabia is less than a thousand per day.
