The World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) has recognised the efforts of Maldives in implementing enhanced health and safety measures, in line with the WTTC global Safe Travels protocols, and creating a safe, gradual plan by rebuilding confidence among travellers and ensuring a coordinated approach in restarting its tourism industry.
Maldives achieved the Safe Travels Stamp, which is endorsed by the UN World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) and more than 200 travel companies. The objective of the Safe Travel Stamp is to provide confidence to travellers and re-establish consumer confidence in travel and tourism and ensure travellers of enhanced standards of hygiene are in place and the assurance that they can once again experience ‘Safe Travels’.
Since the launch of the stamp, major destinations around the world have signed up to the world’s first ever global safety and hygiene stamp.
