Bahrain’s Civil Aviation Affairs has updated its Red List countries to include Malawi, Mozambique, Angola and Zambia in addition to the existing South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Lesotho and Eswatini, a media report said.

The move has been made in response to recommendations made by the National Taskforce for Combating the Coronavirus (Covid-19), reported Bahrain News Agency (BNA).

Passengers from Red List countries, including those who have transited through Red List countries, are prohibited from entry, except for citizens or residents of the Kingdom of Bahrain.

 All other travel procedures for arrivals eligible for entry to the Kingdom of Bahrain from non-Red List remain in place, and Red List countries remain in place.
