To stay in these accommodation facilities, travelers will have to show valid documents to prove that they came to pursue education. Following the end of the 10-day stay, the students studying at universities based in provinces other than Istanbul or Ankara will travel to these provinces.
Meanwhile, Pakistanis who traveled for work will be allowed to quarantine themselves at their residence. However, they will only be allowed to go to their residence in private vehicles while domestic flights or public transportation will not be allowed.
