There is another thing that will change from tomorrow (the 21st).

In the meantime, if you came from abroad, you had to isolate yourself at home or at a facility for 7 days.

This quarantine obligation is now gone.

We will connect with reporters who are at Incheon International Airport and talk about it.



Reporter Jaehyun Park, in what specific cases are quarantine exempted?



<Reporter>



I am in the arrival hall of Incheon International Airport.



The arrival hall is quiet as there is no travel or business trip, but as you can see behind me, there are still many flights from major cities.



Today alone, there are about 60 episodes.



They will be quarantined for a week after taking a quarantine taxi to their home or designated facility.



However, from tomorrow, those who have been vaccinated will no longer have this duty.



[Jeong Ian / U.S. resident immigrant: (If self-quarantine) It is cramped and I wonder what is going on, and I think that travel will be much easier if (isolation) is resolved.]



3rd inoculation, and 2nd vaccination Exemption applies to those who have been infected within 180 days of receiving the vaccine or after completing the second vaccination.



Domestic inoculation history is automatically registered and quarantine is exempted from tomorrow, but overseas inoculators must register their vaccination history at the domestic public health center before the quarantine obligation disappears.



Online registration before entry is possible from the 1st of the following month for foreigners.



If the vaccination history is registered, those who are quarantined after entering the country will also be released from quarantine at 00:00 tomorrow.



In addition, foreign travelers had to use their own vehicles or quarantine taxis, but from next month they will be able to use public transportation.

There are still many countries that need to be quarantined. How is the situation?



<Reporter>



There are still some countries that restrict the entry of foreigners themselves, but they are gradually lifting the quarantine obligation.



In the case of the United States, PCR test is recommended only if the third vaccination has been completed, but if there is a certificate of inoculation and then a negative certificate of PCR test, there is no quarantine obligation is in a state of being.



However, in neighboring countries such as Japan and China, only business trips are allowed, and quarantine is required for at least 3 days and 14 days, respectively.
