Delhi Airport Launches Online Portal ‘AIR SUVIDHA’ for India-bound International Passengers
- The Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL), a GMR Group-led consortium, has developed a first-of-its-kind web portal named ‘AIR SUVIDHA’.
- This portal is meant for India-bound international arriving flyers, to enable them to fill the mandatory self- declaration form. Eligible passengers can also apply online for exemption from mandatory institution quarantine process. This facility is going to help hundreds of AP bound passengers.
- The AIR SUVIDHA portal will make traveling contactless as the passengers won’t have to fill physical copies of self declaration and quarantine exemption forms when they arrive in India.
- Only five categories of passengers will be given exemption from the mandatory seven-day institutional quarantine. These five categories include
- pregnant women
- those who have had bereavement in their families
- people suffering from serious illnesses
- parents accompanying children below 10
- those who have COVID-negative certificate from test done 96 hours before the journey
- These categories of passengers would have to undergo 14-day home quarantine.
- All other international passengers arriving in India will have to follow the usual process of undergoing mandatory seven-day institutional quarantine, at their own cost, followed by seven days of home quarantine.
