New COVID-19 Protocols To Access Financial Institutions

The gazetted order dated October 30, 2021 requires persons entering public buildings to show proof of being fully vaccinated from November 1st, 2021.

Under this order, a person is considered fully vaccinated two weeks after receiving:

  1. An approved single-dose vaccine;
  2. The second dose of an approved two-dose vaccine; or
  3. Any two-dose combination of approved vaccines administered at least 17 days apart.

To date, the Johnson and Johnson vaccine is the only of seven (7) approved vaccines that can be administered as a single dose.

Unvaccinated or partially vaccinated persons are required to make an appointment and present a negative PCR test result obtained within seven (7) days of the appointment.

Member institutions will continue to provide details of their appointment process to ensure that no customer is excluded from accessing services.

We urge everyone to comply with the new protocols and to get fully vaccinated.
