The recovery in international tourism has been given new impetus by the decision of Bahrain<\/strong> and Jordan<\/strong> to open their borders again. After months of restrictions, these countries are introducing strict measures to ensure the safety of travellers. In this context, testing and quarantine requirements are being tightened, reflecting a collective effort to welcome visitors while reducing health risks. This change promises to reinvigorate the tourism sector while ensuring adequate protection for all.<\/p>\n\n As the fight against the pandemic continues, several countries have begun to reopen their borders to international travellers. Most recently, Bahrain<\/strong> and Jordan<\/strong> have introduced measures to welcome back tourists while guaranteeing their safety. This article explores the new regulations and requirements put in place by these two countries to facilitate the resumption of tourism.<\/p>\n\n Bahrain has decided to reopen its borders to international tourists, marking a positive turning point in the dynamics of the tourism sector. This reopening is part of a wider strategy aimed at revitalising the country's economy, which has been severely impacted by restrictions linked to the pandemic. The Bahraini authorities are emphasising health safety for travellers, while making it easier for them to enter the country.<\/p>\n\n A new rule has been introduced for visitors wishing to enter Bahrain. e-Visa holders and those eligible for visas on arrival will now have to pass a PCR test<\/strong> at their own expense as soon as they land. To ensure everyone's safety, these travellers will have to comply with a period of isolation until they have tested negative. These measures are designed to ensure that the reopening is carried out responsibly and safely for everyone.<\/p>\n\n The Jordanian authorities, for their part, also began reopening the borders on 8 September. This decision was greeted with optimism, as it means that several countries will be able to gain access to Jordan. A colour-coded rating system has been established for the 43 countries authorised to enter the country, reflecting the level of risk associated with the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n For France, which is classified in red, the entry conditions are stricter. French travellers must undergo not one, but two PCR tests and observe a period of quarantine<\/strong> from 7 to 14 days. During this period, travellers will be monitored using a wristband. These additional measures are designed to minimise the risk of contamination, while allowing tourists to discover Jordan's cultural and natural riches.<\/p>\n\n Before travelling to Jordan, all travellers are required to complete a online declaration<\/strong> to facilitate their entry. This includes information on their itinerary and state of health. Travellers are advised to ensure that their flight tickets are booked before making this online declaration. The aim of these regulations is to simplify administrative formalities while strengthening health checks at borders.<\/p>\n\n Anyone wishing to visit Jordan, particularly European citizens, will now need to obtain a e-Visa<\/a> before their departure. This requirement gives the authorities better control over travellers entering the country. Similarly Moroccan citizens<\/a> can also apply for an e-Visa, facilitating their access to this country rich in history.<\/p>\n\nThe reopening of Bahrain's borders<\/h2>\n\n
