The Pakistani embassy in Ankara said in a statement that it had received additional information from Turkish authorities regarding Pakistani travellers to the country, a day after the Turkish interior ministry announced that travellers from Pakistan would have to quarantine for 10 days upon arrival.

According to the embassy's statement:

• Due to limited capacity at the quarantine centres, Turkish authorities at the airport may ask some incoming passengers to quarantine at private hotels, the cost of which will be borne by the passengers themselves.
• In case the passenger is quarantined at a government facility, there will be no financial implication on the passenger.
• All passengers arriving from Pakistan and Afghanistan, regardless of their vaccination or recovery status, must acquire a negative PCR test result within 72 hours prior to their boarding time and enter a 10-day quarantine.
