The Government of South Korea will remove the seven-day quarantine restrictions for overseas arrivals, who have completed their COVID-19 vaccination.
The decision to lift quarantine restrictions will apply from March 21. South Korea is one of the labor destination countries for Nepali migrant workers. The restriction removal is believed to ease the entry or the return of Nepali migrant workers to the country.
South Korea has been receiving migrant workers from various 16 countries including Nepal, Pakistan, Thailand, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Myanmar under the EPS program.
Lack of spaces and high fees for isolation has hit migrant workers waiting for their return or entry to the country, it has been said.
