The U.K., South Africa and Brazil variants have been currently detected in 86, 44 and 15 countries respectively, India being one of them.

The government on Thursday issued a fresh set of travel guidelines, with India reporting the presence of U.K., South Africa and Brazil mutant variants of the SARS-CoV-2 which have demonstrated increased transmissibility, as reported by the World Health Organization. All the three have been currently detected in 86, 44 and 15 countries respectively, India being one of them.

The guidelines state that all the travellers arriving from/transiting through flights originating in the U.K., Europe or Middle East shall be mandatorily subjected to self-paid confirmatory molecular tests on arrival at the Indian airports concerned (port of entry). Entries made regarding telephone numbers and addresses would be reconfirmed.

It further states that immigration officers of identified airports shall ensure identification of travellers (from their passports) who originated or transited from the U.K., Brazil and South Africa (during past 14 days).
