Dubai authorities have issued a new travel advisory for travelers traveling to Dubai.
According to the details, Pakistanis have been warned by the Dubai authorities in a new travel advisory that only the corona test reports from laboratories that are registered with the Dubai authorities are acceptable.
The Dubai authorities have said that the Corona tests conducted by Chagatai Laboratory and Islamabad Diagnostic Service of passengers arriving in Dubai will not be acceptable.
According to the new travel advisory, only the laboratories that are registered with the Dubai authorities will be admissible at the Dubai airport for corona tests conducted by them.
The order will apply to all airlines operating flights from Pakistan to Dubai, and the order will come into effect immediately.
New travel advisory issued for passengers
It should be remembered that this month the Civil Aviation Authority had also issued a new travel advisory for passengers coming from abroad, in which the passengers have been divided into 2 categories (A and B) regarding Corona.
Category A includes 30 countries, including China, Japan, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, from where passengers will be exempted from corona test and PCR. While passengers coming from countries included in category B have been declared mandatory for corona test.

**Interview with Travel Expert on New Dubai Travel Advisory**
**Interviewer:** Thank you for joining us today. The Dubai authorities have issued a new travel advisory that impacts travelers from Pakistan. Can you explain the significance of these recent changes regarding COVID-19 testing requirements?
**Expert:** Absolutely. The new advisory emphasizes that only COVID-19 test results from laboratories registered with Dubai authorities will be accepted. Specifically, tests from Chagatai Laboratory and Islamabad Diagnostic Service will not be valid for entry into Dubai, which could create complications for many travelers who may have relied on these services.
**Interviewer:** That’s quite a strict measure. What do you think led to this decision by Dubai authorities?
**Expert:** It seems to stem from ongoing concerns regarding the accuracy and reliability of testing results. By restricting valid test centers, Dubai aims to ensure a higher level of safety for all passengers and maintain their status as a safe travel destination.
**Interviewer:** Given the updated guidelines, how do you think this will affect the travel plans of Pakistani visitors wanting to go to Dubai?
**Expert:** This could certainly pose challenges. Travelers now need to ensure they are using the right testing facilities, and any oversight could lead to denied boarding. It adds an extra layer of stress during an already complicated time for international travel.
**Interviewer:** With the recent categorization of countries regarding testing requirements, do you believe that this creates a fair system? Some countries are exempt while others are not, which could lead to differing experiences in travel.
**Expert:** That’s a contentious issue. On one hand, it makes sense for countries with low transmission rates to have fewer restrictions, but on the other hand, this could be seen as discriminatory. It raises the question of whether such measures effectively address public health concerns or simply inconvenience travelers.
**Interviewer:** Do you think travelers will adapt to these changes, or is there a potential backlash brewing?
**Expert:** I anticipate both. While many travelers may adapt seamlessly, others could express frustration, especially if they feel the rules are unfair or excessively stringent. It could lead to broader debates about travel freedom versus health security, which would be interesting to follow.
**Interviewer:** Thank you for sharing your insights. Readers, what are your thoughts on this new travel advisory? Do you think the measures are justified, or do they create unnecessary obstacles for travelers? Let’s hear your opinions.
