In a big move, Uttarakhand has lifted all travel restrictions pertaining to special permits, COVID negative certificates, and e-permits for inter-state travellers.
The new guidelines suggest that you no longer need a COVID-negative report, or an e-permit which was essential earlier. Starting today, the compulsory 2-day booking restriction for tourists is also lifted.
All that you need to do is to register yourself on Dehradun Smart City Limited website before your travel.
All inbound people from high load COVID-infected cities will have to stay in seven days’ institutional and then seven days’ home quarantine. The same applies to tourists from outside India as well. However, if their COVID test is done not earlier than 96 hours before arrival, they shall be exempted from quarantine.
Earlier tourists had to book a minimum of seven days in Uttarakhand, it was then reduced to two days, and stands slashed for now.
Any traveller who is asymptomatic and is travelling for less than seven days due to exam, business, or personal distress can continue to conduct their business, but need to monitor their health regularly. They must contact local authorities in case of symptoms.
On the other hand, those travelling for more than seven days are required to be in home quarantine for 10 days. If you are asymptomatic and are travelling outside the state for more than five days or less, you will not have to go into home quarantine upon returning. Those who are going out of the state for more than five days, will have to be in home quarantine for 10 days upon returning.
In case you get tested at your destination and return with a negative report, you shall be exempted.
We request our readers to not travel unless essential. If travelling, please follow all the health and safety guidelines by Central and State governments as well as local bodies.
Social distancing is essential for your safety as well as for the locals of these places.
Workcations are not regular vacations and are not meant for sightseeing or any such activities; please stick to the conditions laid out by your hosts if you venture outside the premises.
