Specifically, the updated Protocol differentiates the following from the maximum number of people that can be served in restaurants:
Although the distance measurement is still valid 3 sq.m. for interiors and 2 sq.m. for outdoor areas per person, regardless of the square footage of each property, the maximum number of people that can be served cannot exceed 75 people indoors and 150 people outdoors. For example, if a property has 400 sq.m. outdoors and based on the measure for keeping a distance of 2 sq.m. per person, it could serve up to 200 people, with the new decision, the number of customers can not exceed 150. If a property has 300 sq.m. indoors and based on the measure for keeping a distance of 3 sq.m. per person, it could serve up to 100 people, with the new decision, the number of people can not exceed 75.
