SEOUL, March 12: The Government of South Korea has decided to remove the seven-day quarantine restrictions for overseas arrivals from March 21.

The South Korean government introduced this rule for those who have completed full doses of COVID-19 vaccines. 

South Korea is one of the major labor destination countries for Nepali migrant workers. The restriction removal is expected 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.
