Nahid Malazizi
Abstract: After facing an unprecedented pandemic, the world strives to return to pre - pandemic normal life and tourism is the most affected industry with a massive decline of demand because of the global restrictions hence increasing tourism activities are in a wide spectrum on a global scale. Prior to the pandemic, tourism movements reached to 1.5 billion while according to the UWTO (UNWTO World Tourism Barometer), global tourist arrivals fell almost 70% during the pandemic 1. Two important problems have emerged in terms of physical safety systems of states. The border structures are variable and countries are not able to establish a common and effective health system against epidemics. There are two global concerns: reaching the normal tourism financial revenue and on the other hand, taking effective and sufficient health security measures. In the current study, by pointing these concerns, according to analytical data an evaluation will be conducted on the measures to be taken at countries' border crossings and solutions will be proposed.
