Crew must enter hotel quarantine upon arrival in the country, and to remain there until the PCR results are available (usually within 24 hours). Once a negative PCR test result is received, the crew member can join their vessel.
For off-signers, authorities prefer the crew to be transferred directly from the vessel to the airport. Alternatively, hotel can be arranged after obtaining necessary approvals.
