NIA stresses that, in order to prevent international movement of population leading to further outbreaks, as well as to reduce the burden of local epidemic prevention efforts, foreigners who had been allowed to stay for 180 days or more were previously granted 18 automatic 30-day extensions, since JUL/17/2020. The 19th extension has now been applied to eligible foreigners.
