The Indonesian government has decided to reduce the 10-day required quarantine period for international arrivals to 7-10 days.


"The 14-day quarantine will be reduced to 10 days, and the 10-day quarantine will be reduced to seven days," Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan stated at a press conference at the Jakarta Presidential Office on Monday, January 3.


The former law on the 10-day quarantine was mentioned in the COVID-19 Task Force Head's Decree No. 1 of 2022 regarding entry points, quarantine centres, and RT-PCR duties for Indonesian residents travelling abroad.

 

Due to worries about the increase of the Omicron variety in the country, the regulation was originally planned to take effect from January 1, 2022, until December 31, 2022.

 

International travellers from countries with confirmed Omicron cases who are geographically close to the country reporting the variation are subjected to a 14-day obligatory quarantine.


Indonesia has confirmed 152 COVID-19 Omicron infections, according to Health Minister Budi Gunadi Sadikin.
Six of the incidents included local transmission.
