Maldives Immigration states that all inbound travelers into Maldives should have a negative PCR result with a sample taken 96 hours prior to departure to Maldives.  

In a travel advisory released yesterday, Maldives Immigration stated that from now on all inbound travelers are obliged to hold a negative PCR test result with a sample taken within 96 hours prior to departure from the first port of embarkation.

The advisory stated that all travelers, including those who have completed prescribed doses of a Covid-19 vaccine, must hold a negative result for a nucleic acid test (PCR test) for Covid-19 prior to entry into Maldives. The sample for the PCR test must be taken at least 96 hours before departure from the first port of embarkation. Furthermore, Children below one year old are exempt from the requirement of a PCR test. 

The validity period of the PCR test for some categories of travelers were revised to 72 hours recently but this revision is now void, Maldives Immigration said in its travel advisory.
