Portuguese tourism officials have created a "clean and safe" accreditation for its industry as the country looks ahead to its post-coronavirus tourist recovery.

The action will impact all of Portugal's national airports

The stamp of approval shows Portugal’s tourism enterprises, entertainment companies and travel agencies are all compliant with hygiene requirements for the prevention and control of Covid-19, as well as other possible diseases. 

Turismo de Portugal said the move would help "reinforce confidence" in the country’s tourism sector and drive a return to pre-virus visitor activity. 

Application for the accreditation is free and valid for one year.
