Etihad Airways: ICA registration mandatory for travel to Abu Dhabi

From Friday 27 August, travellers arriving to Abu Dhabi must register via the ICA Smart Travel Service before they fly even if they are travelling to Dubai or another emirate. This applies to adults, children and infants.

This does not apply to UAE nationals or transit guests.

If guests have been vaccinated outside the UAE and wish to have their vaccination status approved – required to maintain green status in the Al Hosn app in order to be able to enter public places in Abu Dhabi – they should register and upload their documents for approval five days before they travel.

If passengers have been fully vaccinated in the UAE, they do not need to upload a vaccine certificate and simply need to register before they fly.

All guests are advised to register on the ICA portal as soon as possible. Registration is mandatory for entry. Vaccination is not mandatory for entry but is required to be able to move freely about the city.

This means that there are some changes to arriving in Abu Dhabi, read more in our step by step guide below. 

New testing requirements - travelling from Jordan, Kuwait or the Netherlands

Effective from Friday 27 August 2021, there are also new test requirements if your customers are travelling from Jordan, Kuwait or the Netherlands, and their final destination is Abu Dhabi.

In this case, their PCR test must now be taken a maximum of 24 hours before their flight departure time as required by the authorities in Abu Dhabi. Please share this information with customers affected as soon as possible
