Upon arrival at Bujumbura airport, the Burundian health authorities perform a PCR test for which a fee is charged, which must be paid on site or in advance in the course of the mandatory online registration (https://cousp-minisante.gov.bi/) (100 USD for foreign nationals, prior payment possible online, also on site via Mastercard and Visa). The time until the test result is received (usually within 24 hours) must be spent in quarantine at a location of one's choice. A positive test will result in admission to a local hospital and treatment at your own expense.
