Travellers who have taken UAE-approved COVID-19 jabs abroad can register their vaccination details and certificates with the UAE authorities.
The registration process starts on August 15, and it can be done through the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship's (ICA) app or website.
Its details were announced during the latest government media briefing on Tuesday.
Brigadier Khamis Al Kaabi, the ICA's official spokesperson said registration is not mandatory but doing so will help travellers enjoy the benefits applicable to fully vaccinated individuals in the UAE.
He added the policy also aims to ensure the safe entry of passengers.
Only UAE-approved vaccines can be registered, and the details will be reflected on the AlHosn app.
