Longer wait for foreigners in Indonesia - Mandatory quarantine period extended for all international arrivals

THE country has increased the mandatory quarantine period for all international arrivals from seven days to 10 days, effective yesterday, as the Omicron variant continues to spread across the globe.

The government earlier this week banned foreigners who have been in South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Mozambique, Eswatini, Malawi, Angola, Zambia and Hong Kong within two weeks before departing for Indonesia.
