Measures have been in place since July 19…
The Abu Dhabi Emergency, Crisis and Disasters Committee has announced an end to the National Sterilisation Programme, a nightly deep cleaning programme that required Abu Dhabi inhabitants to stay inside between midnight and 5 am.
The stay at home orders, that have been in place since July 19, the first day of the Eid holiday — in order to prevent the proliferation of new variants, will end today, Thursday August 19, 2021.

The checks on the road border between Dubai and Abu Dhabi are still in place.

As before DPI test cannot be used to enter Abu Dhabi consecutive times (if you did a DPI test last time, you need to do a PCR the next time).
Those entering with a PCR test must retake a PCR test on day four of entry for those staying four days of more. An additional PCR test must be taken on day eight for those staying eight days or more.
Those entering via DPI must take a PCR test on day three of entry for those staying 48 hours or more, and take an additional PCR test on day seven for those staying seven days or more
If you have travelled back from a non Green List country within the last 12 days, you’ll need to follow the procedures before. You may be asked to stay in Dubai until the quarantine period specified below (12 or seven depending on vaccination status) has passed, as tracking bracelets are not guaranteed on the road border.
