The Abu Dhabi Border Has Introduced A Rapid COVID-19 Laser Testing Facility

Good news for anyone who wants to visit Abu Dhabi… the testing process has just become more smooth.

People who want to visit the capital can be screened for COVID-19 on entry by a laser-based DPI technique. A negative result will allow entry to Abu Dhabi while a positive result will lead to further testing through a PCR test. IF you get a PCR test you must return to your residence and avoid contact with others until the results are available, according to a report by Abu Dhabi Media Office.

Take note: You’re still encouraged to plan ahead and undergo tests in advance to avoid delays
