Travel Advisory - Marburg Virus Disease

As part of public health measures to prevent the spread of Marburg Virus Disease (MVD) and in line with the Travel Advisory issued recently, the following is mandatory upon departing from Rwanda, effective immediately:

Departure

  • Travelers should monitor for MVD symptoms, including fever, severe headaches, muscle ache, vomiting and diarrhoea, before departing from Rwanda and seek medical advice immediately if they experience these symptoms.
  • Expect routine temperature checks using Thermo-Scan Cameras, and the use of hand sanitizing stations.
  • All passengers exiting the country must complete the Marburg Symptom Screening Questionnaire “Declaration form” within 24 hours of departure, download the QR code, and present it upon arrival at the airport. The declaration form can be found here
  • If you've been in contact with a confirmed case of Marburg, you cannot travel until 21 days after your exposure provided you are symptom-free.

REMINDER: Rwanda's proven ability to manage public health challenges ensures a safe environment for all travelers.

The country's commitment to scientific and evidence-based responses, as demonstrated during the COVID-19 pandemic, remains a priority in safeguarding the well-being of everyone in Rwanda.
