The UAE reported 971 new Covid-19 cases on Sunday.

It brings its total number of infections to 723,263 as cases continue to fall.

The latest figures came after 302,164 tests were carried out.

One person died from complications related to Covid-19, bringing the total death toll to 2,046.

Another 1,387 people beat the virus, raising the number of recoveries to 712,521.

Active cases have declined to 8,696.

Cases have been falling in recent weeks as mass testing and one of the world's fastest vaccination drives have seen the UAE curb the virus.

Rules are also being lifted as the UAE cautiously returns to normal.

Abu Dhabi will remove the requirement to quarantine on arrival for vaccinated travellers from all international destinations from Sunday.

The Abu Dhabi Emergency, Crisis and Disasters Committee said all travellers, vaccinated and unvaccinated, must present a negative result from a PCR test taken 48 hours before departure.

Know before you go
  • Jebel Akhdar is a two-hour drive from Muscat airport or a six-hour drive from Dubai. It’s impossible to visit by car unless you have a 4x4. Phone ahead to the hotel to arrange a transfer.
  • If you’re driving, make sure your insurance covers Oman.
  • By air: Budget airlines Air Arabia, Flydubai and SalamAir offer direct routes to Muscat from the UAE.
  • Tourists from the Emirates (UAE nationals not included) must apply for an Omani visa online before arrival at evisa.rop.gov.om. The process typically takes several days.
  • Flash floods are probable due to the terrain and a lack of drainage. Always check the weather before venturing into any canyons or other remote areas and identify a plan of escape that includes high ground, shelter and parking where your car won’t be overtaken by sudden downpours.
