The impact of COVID-19 on the Maldives began in early February with the suspension of flights between the Maldives and mainland China, followed by bans on the entry of travellers from other affected countries in March and most importantly, national lockdown on 17 April. As countries across the globe locked down, inbound arrivals to the Maldives plummeted, as key source markets such as China, India, France, Italy, Spain, the UK and parts of Germany were severely affected by COVID-19.
