Anti-COVID-19 Measures Reimposed in Ulaanbaatar www.mn.usembassy.gov

On December 21, 2020, the Mongolian government announced that a state of “all-out-preparedness” and associated lockdown measures would be reimposed in Ulaanbaatar beginning at 0600 on December 23 and continuing until at least 0600 on January 6. This decision follows reports of additional confirmed cases associated with a local COVID-19 cluster.
American citizens should expect the reimposition of anti-COVID-19 measures adopted during the previous lockdown, including the suspension of non-essential businesses, movement restrictions (both vehicular and pedestrian), and ongoing contact tracing. The public is once again urged to stay home and leave only to buy groceries, medicines, and other necessities. Supermarkets, grocery stores, and markets will remain open, and residents are encouraged to shop in their neighborhoods.
The following additional sectors will be permitted to continue limited operations during this period:
Energy, improved heating fuel supply
Food production, trade, distribution, and transportation services
Petroleum products, fuel supply, distribution, and transportation activities
Fodder distribution and transportation activities
National important and strategically considered organizations, their supply flows and transportation operations
Public transportation and licensed taxi services
Urban water supply, sanitation and their operations
Supply of medical organizations, medicines, and medical equipment
Bank operations
Media, communication, and postal services
Activities of organizations with special functions
Legislative, judicial, prosecutorial, advocacy, and notarial activities
Funeral services
Center for Domestic Violence and Child Care
Some public administration bodies
City residents working in industries other than those listed above will be prohibited from traveling via car, and drivers with recently-granted QR codes should see their codes reactivated.
Travel into Ulaanbaatar city remains possible until 0600 on December 23, subject to previously-announced re-entry procedures, while travel out of Ulaanbaatar is restricted. (Emergency travel out of Ulaanbaatar may be possible, depending on the circumstances.) At present, public transportation will continue operating at normal hours.
Citizens are encouraged to review previous Embassy announcements containing guidance on the measures adopted by the Mongolian government related to the community transmission of COVID-19 by visiting: https://mn.usembassy.gov/.../security-and-travel.../.
