On August 1, as all flights resume, only travellers that have been tested within 72 hours (at least three days) by approved laboratories and are found not carrying COVID-19, are allowed to enter Rwanda.<\/p>\n

Upon arrival, travellers will be immediately re-tested, then sent at one of the 17 selected hotels where they will remain for 24 hours as they await their test results.<\/p>\n

Medical doctors will also be available on call at a consultation fee of $ 10, in addition to the $ 50 they will be paying for the COVID-19 test.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Government of Rwandan has negotiated special rates at the designated hotels for the waiting period. Should a guest wish to remain in the hotel after receiving negative test results, they are welcome to extend their stay at the applicable hotel rates.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the statement, the negotiated hotel rate is on full board basis, including three meals and if a guest takes less than the three meals there will be no refund provided to them; any extras will be paid separately upon order.<\/p>\n

The price varies from $ 200 for resident in the Kigali Marriott Hotel to $ 40 which is the lowest rate and applicable for those that will choose to be staying in the Greenwich Hotel, Remera.<\/p>\n
