Sharjah, UAE, July 27, 2020 – To assure
tourists that Sharjah’s travel and tourism establishments are looking after
their health and safety, the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority
(SCTDA) has launched the ‘Sharjah Safe for Tourism’ stamp, a mark of assurance
given to all establishments in Sharjah which fully adhere to the public health
protocols and guidelines aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19. The stamp
follows the measures set out by the World Travel and Tourism Council’s (WTTC)
‘Safe Travels’ stamp, the world’s first global safety and hygiene stamp for
travel and tourism.

Sharjah assures top-level safety of residents and tourists through Sharjah Safe for Tourism stamp
SCTDA, in collaboration with Sharjah
Health Authority (SHA), has commenced inspecting various establishments in the
emirate to ensure compliance with the required health and safety measures. This
latest move is in line with Sharjah’s gradual easing of restrictions to reopen
public and private facilities in the tourism sector such as hotels,
restaurants, shops, malls, leisure and recreation destinations, including
beaches, swimming pools, and golf courses, among others, enabling services to
be provided while reassuring visitors of their safety during their visit.

Residents and tourists visiting the
emirate can look for the ‘Safety Assured’ stamp displayed in the establishment
prior to making a booking or upon entry. The stamp is a visual symbol which
gives instant recognition of the establishment’s compliance to the
precautionary measures being implemented by the government, reassuring
consumers of the safety of the location.

H.E. Khalid Jasim Al Midfa, Chairman,
SCTDA, said: “Sharjah has always maintained the emirate as a safe destination
for tourists and we continue to keep these standards high especially amidst
global efforts to curb the spread of COVID-19. Our main priority is the health
and safety of residents and visitors alike, which led to the development of the
‘Safety Assured’ stamp, employing the protocols set by the World Travel and
Tourism Council under their ‘Safe Travels’ stamp program to assure tourists of
a secure and relaxing experience at every stage of their journey and stay in
Sharjah.”

He added: “We have outlined the
precautionary measures for all hotels to ensure their guests can enjoy the
establishment’s facilities with full confidence. SCTDA continuously monitors
premises to ensure compliance with precautionary measures to make sure they are
fully prepared to receive guests with the highest standards of hygiene and
safety.”

H.E. Abdulla Ali Al Mahyan, Chairman of
the Sharjah Health Authority (SHA), said, “Sharjah has always remained
keen on applying the latest in international standards and best practices,
particularly in the field of health and safety to ensure that the emirate’s
citizens, residents and visitors are well protected. In line with this, the
Sharjah Health Authority is working in close partnership with the SCTDA to
implement the required preventive measures ensuring public health and health
security. We are confident that the ‘Sharjah Safe for Tourism’ stamp will serve
as an incentive and visible symbol of reassurance. We call on all
establishments and individuals in the emirate to adhere to the comprehensive
preventive and precautionary measures to help prevent and eliminate this pandemic.”  

SCTDA will exclusively grant the stamp
to organizations which comply with the international health protocols as well
as local guidelines. The establishment may display the stamp on their websites,
marketing collaterals and other platforms that are visible to the public. There
are several guidelines being implemented, including the use of thermal scanners
and cameras at entrances and restaurants enforcing two-meter social distancing
between tables.

Sharjah has received the ‘Safe Travels’
stamp from WTTC, which is testament to the city’s efforts to implement safety
protocols in line with international standards. The ‘Safe Travels’ stamp is a
self-assessment guideline and is not a certification. It is a mark of
confirmation that the countries, destination authorities and companies that
have achieved the stamp, have implemented, and will ensure ongoing compliance
with the ‘Safe Travels’ protocols.
