World number one Novak Djokovic is set to make his return to action in Dubai next month.
The 34-year-old was deported from Australia on the eve of the Australian Open after losing a court bid to overturn his visa cancellation.
The 20-time Grand Slam winner is on the entry list for the Dubai ATP Tour event, which begins on 21 February.
Entrants to Dubai, where the Serb is a five-time winner, do not need to be vaccinated against Covid-19.
Djokovic was initially granted a medical exemption to enter Australia by two independent health panels after testing positive for coronavirus in mid-December, however the Australian Border Force detained him for not meeting federal Covid requirements.
