The countries follow Turkey; Portugal, Kenya, Mauritius, Tunisia, Indonesia, Egypt, and Dubai in joining the Safe Travels Stamp initiative, which helps travellers identify destinations using standardised health and hygiene protocols.
The hygiene measures used by the scheme were devised following the experience of WTTC members dealing with Covid-19 and based on guidelines from the World Health Organisation and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Ecuador received its stamp following government announcement that will see international travellers arriving with a negative test taken within the previous 10 days exempt from its 14-day isolation.
