Travelers are advised to print out their test result or have it with them digitally. If the DCC cannot be read due to technical problems, and a traveler does not have a paper or digital test result, he/she must still be tested or quarantined.

A traveler who cannot show a negative test result on arrival runs the risk of being quarantined for 10 days at their own expense. That is the current situation. The traveler will be quarantined at a place designated by the Island Governor. In such a case, the traveler can do a PCR test at the GGD after 5 days. If the test is negative, the quarantine may be ended.
