Amer centres in Dubai will reopen on Sunday following the government’s decision to ease movement restrictions.

According to the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA), the centres are allowed to operate between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm but occupancy levels of staff and customers cannot exceed 30 per cent.

It is also mandatory for everyone to wear face masks, while employees and visitors will also have to go through thermal scanning.

The centres were temporarily closed last month as part of the precautionary measures against COVID-19.
