MUSCAT: Oman will reopen its borders (land, air and sea) on December 29 after temporarily closing for one-week in the wake of a fast spreading new strain of coronavirus.

In a statement issued the Supreme Committee said the borders will reopen on Tuesday.

The Supreme Committee also decided to make PCR test mandatory for passengers coming from all countries without any exception. The Committee also removed the quarantine period for those arriving in the country for less than seven days.

Last week the Supreme Committee issued a direction to close the country’s borders including airports and allowing only domestic and cargo operations.
