(MENAFN- The Peninsula) Doha: In its latest update of travel and return policy, the Ministry of Public health announced that travellers will be able to activate Ehteraz using international SIM card starting October 6.

The MOPH statement said travellers should download the Ehteraz mobile application and activate it on their mobile phones using a local or international SIM card.

Passengers travelling to Qatar must download the app and activate it on arrival at Qatar's entry ports. To do this, they need mobile internet connection and a smartphone that supports Android 6, newer versions or IOS 13.5 and later versions.

SIM cards and smartphones are available for purchase at Hamad International Airport and Abu Samra border crossing if the passenger does not own them before arrival.

Diplomats, administrative cardholders and VIP visitors arriving on official state visits are excluded from this measure.

Meanwhile, in its most recent update on September 15, Ehteraz added a new feature showing the details of the third Covid-19 vaccine dose.
