Non-essential, tourist travel to the cantons of Aargau, Basel-Land, Basel-Stadt, Graubünden, Solothurn, Ticino, Zug and Zurich is not advised. As of Monday, April 26, 2021, India is considered a high-risk country. The virus variant discovered there seems to spread much faster than local mutations. Under most circumstances, only citizens and residents of EEA countries, in addition to Australia, New Zealand, Rwanda, Singapore, South Korea, and Thailand, may enter Switzerland. Air travelers can enter the country via the airports of Zurich, Geneva and Basel, as well as some regional airports. The flight schedule is thinned out. As of February 8, 2021 travelers entering Switzerland by air will only be able to board the plane if they can present the airline with a negative result of a molecular biology test for SARS-CoV-2 (PCR test) carried out within the last 72 hours. All permitted arrivals who have spent time in any high-risk location within 10 days prior to arrival must fill out an entry form prior to arrival, present a negative result from a COVID-19 PCR test taken within 72 hours prior to departure for Switzerland, and self-isolate for 10 days on arrival. Entry from EU Member States and Schengen associated countries is allowed without restrictions, unless a country or region is defined as COVID-19 risk area. It is not possible to enter Switzerland from a high-risk country in order to travel on to another Schengen country for a short stay of up to 90 days that does not require a residence document. However, third-country citizens holding a residence document for their destination country in the Schengen area are allowed to travel through Switzerland to that country. The Federal Office of Public Health keeps a list of countries concerned (https://www.bag.admin.ch/bag/en/home/krankheiten/ausbrueche-epidemien-pandemien/aktuelle-ausbrueche-epidemien/novel-cov/empfehlungen-fuer-reisende/quarantaene-einreisende.html#1918240392) that is updated regularly.

However, third-country citizens holding a residence document for their destination country in the Schengen area are allowed to travel through Switzerland to that country. If the country of destination in the Schengen area has authorised entry for a short stay of up to 90 days, the person concerned must enter the Schengen area by traveling directly to that country.

Non-essential tourist travel to Luxembourg is currently warned against due to high infection rates. For any person authorised to enter Luxembourg (regardless of nationality), it is compulsory to present, before boarding a flight to Luxembourg a vaccination certificate, a recovery certificate of a previous COVID-19 infection or a negative test result carried out less than 72 hours before the flight . The negative result of the test must be presented, if necessary accompanied by a translation, in one of the administrative languages of Luxembourg or in English, Italian, Spanish or Portuguese. This applies to all departures to Luxembourg, including those from European Union Member States or the Schengen area. India is considered a particular high-risk country due to the virus variant discovered there which seems to spread much faster than the formerly known mutations. Any person, regardless of nationality and age, who stayed in India during the last 14 days must undergo a PCR-test upon arrival and contact the medical analysis laboratory. If the person arrives in Luxembourg by air, the test will be carried out free of charge at the COVID-19 test centre at the airport. Until July 15, 2021 inclusive, additional sanitary measures including a quarantine requirement are applicable to all travel originating from India. By exemption, the quarantine may be lifted early for persons on duty in the transport sector, provided that these persons leave the national territory as soon as possible in the course of their professional activities. Effective June 7, 2021, any arriving travelers who have stayed in the UK in the preceding 14 days must submit to a COVID-19 test on arrival and quarantine for seven days before taking a second COVID-19 test. EU citizens and those of Schengen area countries, as well as citizens of (e.g.) San Marino, Andorra, Monaco and the Vatican/Holy See are free to enter the territory of Luxembourg, regardless of the purpose of the stay and not only to return to their homes. Travelers arriving by air from the Frankfurt-Hahn or Cologne airports in Germany who are traveling on to Luxembourg by car must present a negative PCR or antigen test not older than 48 hours. There are no border controls between Luxembourg and Germany. On October 13, 2020, EU Member States passed a Council Recommendation regarding a coordinated approach to restrictions on movement in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to reduce the spread of the coronavirus outbreak, the 27 EU Member States have taken several measures, some of which have affected the right of citizens to move freely within the European Union (e.g. such as the requirement to undergo quarantine or coronavirus testing). The Recommendation identifies the following four key areas where Member States will coordinate their efforts: i) Member States shall take into account the notification rate, the test positivity rate and the testing rate when considering restriction measures as a response to the prevention of the coronavirus spread. ii) The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control shall publish a map of all EU Member States including Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland reflecting the risk levels within the regions in Europe by way of using a traffic light system. Areas will be classified with green, orange, red and grey colors (e.g. if not sufficient information is available). iii) On this basis, Member States shall decide on their own whether, and which specific restrictions are to be implemented towards travelers coming to their territory. However, the Member States have agreed on the same approach regarding areas marked as green, i.e. no restrictions like testing or quarantine will be implemented to travelers coming from green areas. Further, travelers in relevant functions or need shall not be subject to quarantine measures (e.g. patients traveling for medical reasons, diplomats, journalists etc.). iv) The Member States shall provide details of any upcoming restrictions regarding the right to free movement or the cancellation of any travel restrictions to Member States and Commission. Except for some third countries (e.g. Australia, subject to reciprocity at EU level: China, Hong-Kong, Macao, New Zealand, Rwanda, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand ), third-country nationals also may not enter the territory of the Grand Duchy until June 30, 2021. It should be noted that from January 1, 2021, restrictions also apply to third-country nationals residing in the UK including British nationals who are not covered by the provisions of the Withdrawal Agreement. Some other exemptions of third-country nationals are also allowed to enter the Grand Duchy, i.e. third-country nationals who have the status of long-term resident in accordance with European Directive 2003/109/EC on long-term residents, as well as any other person entitled to stay in the country in accordance with the corresponding European Directives and with the national law of a European Union member State or a Schengen Area associated country, and anyone who holds a national long-term visa issued by any of these States; cross-border workers; passengers in transit; passengers travelling for duly justified urgent family reasons and/or highly-qualified workers from third countries if their employment is necessary in economic terms and their work cannot be postponed or carried out from abroad. There are restrictions on international air, train and bus traffic. There are several intra-European flight connections. Buses, intercity buses and trains run to a reduced extent.

In Luxembourg, one distinguishes between isolation, quarantine and self-monitoring measures. Isolation applies to people who have been confirmed as being infected by COVID-19. They must self-isolate at home and the people living in the same house and their close contacts should quarantine themselves for 7 days. Quarantine applies to people who have had high-risk contact with a person with a confirmed infection, i.e. face-to-face contact for more than 15 minutes, unprotected physical contact, etc. These people must stay at home for 7 days counting from the day of the last contact with the infected person. Self-monitoring lasts 14 days and applies to people who have had low-risk contact with a person who has been confirmed as being infected. Luxembourg has no quarantine obligation for travelers, except for those with a positive COVID-19 test result. In this case, a 10 day isolation is mandatory.

The Federal Office of Public Health provides a regularly updated list of countries defined as COVID-19 risk area. If a country is on the list, this includes all of its areas, islands and overseas territories – even if they are not listed separately. From June 3, 2021, Turkey as well as regions in Germany, France and Italy are no longer on the list. Travelers from the EU member states and the Schengen area may enter Liechtenstein without any restrictions, unless a region or country is defined as COVID-19 risk area on the list of the Federal Office of Public Health: https://www.bag.admin.ch/bag/en/home/krankheiten/ausbrueche-epidemien-pandemien/aktuelle ausbrueche-epidemien/novel-cov/empfehlungen-fuer-reisende/quarantaene-einreisende.html#1918240392).

This does not apply to international flight passengers who stay up to 48 hours, crew members who stay 72 hours or who stay in the transit area for no more than 24 hours and who can prove a connecting flight. Ship and aircraft crew members as well as seafarers who are on the way to or from their ship have no time limit for transit. Flights from Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Serbia to Latvia are suspended. Those exempted from doing the test are children under the age of 11, persons vaccinated against COVID-19 (proof must be provided), passenger carrier staff, sailors traveling for work, transit passengers who do not leave the airport control area, and members of the diplomatic corps. Tests will also not be required for those who live near the border and cross it daily for work or education. There is a registration requirement for all travelers when entering Latvia. An electronic questionnaire must be completed 48 hours before the planned entry. The QR code received after registration must be shown to the border guards upon entry and kept available for controls during the entire duration of the stay. If a stay of less than 10 days is planned, you may leave Latvia on the day specified in the questionnaire for departure, subject to the quarantine regulations. The test results must already be in the electronic entry registration to be specified. Borders to Russia and Belarus are closed. On October 13, 2020, EU Member States passed a Council Recommendation regarding a coordinated approach to restrictions on movement in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to reduce the spread of the coronavirus outbreak, the 27 EU Member States have taken several measures, some of which have affected the right of citizens to move freely within the European Union (e.g. such as the requirement to undergo quarantine or coronavirus testing). The Recommendation identifies the following four key areas where Member States will coordinate their efforts: i) Member States shall take into account the notification rate, the test positivity rate and the testing rate when considering restriction measures as a response to the prevention of the Coronavirus spread, ii) The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control shall publish a map of all EU Member States including Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland reflecting the risk levels within the regions in Europe by way of using a traffic light system. Areas will be classified with green, orange, red and grey colours (e.g. if not sufficient information is available), iii) On this basis, Member States shall decide on their own whether, and which specific restrictions are to be implemented towards travelers coming to their territory. However, the Member States have agreed on the same approach regarding areas marked as green, i.e. no restrictions like testing or quarantine will be implemented to travelers coming from green areas. Further, travelers in relevant functions or needs shall not be subject to quarantine measures (e.g. patients traveling for medical reasons, diplomats, journalists etc.), iv) The Member States shall provide details of any upcoming restrictions regarding the right to free movement or the cancellation of any travel restrictions to Member States and Commission. Citizens from Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Rwanda, Singapore, South Korea, and Thailand, as well as people with permanent residence status in those countries, may travel to Latvia.

In Ireland there are increasing cases of the new, more contagious variant of COVID-19. Ireland is classified as a risk area with a particularly high risk of infection. The Irish government advises against all non-essential international travel. This advise and related penalties will remain in force until July 18, 2021. From July 19, 2021 subject to the prevailing public health situation, Ireland will operate the EU Digital Covid Certificate (DCC) for travel originating within the EU/EEA. There are currently warnings against unnecessary tourist trips to Ireland, with the exception of the South-West, Mid-West, South-East and the Midlands' regions. Unnecessary tourist trips to the South-West, Mid-West, South-East and Midlands regions, however, are still not recommended, with effect from May 23, 2021. India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are is considered high-risk countries due to the virus variant discovered there which seems to spread much faster than the formerly known mutations. All passengers arriving into Ireland (except those arriving from Northern Ireland) are required to have a negative/‘not detected’ result from a pre-departure COVID-19 PCR test carried out no more than 72 hours prior to arrival in Ireland. Evidence of this negative/'not detected' result must be shown before boarding the airplane or ferry from the country passengers are traveling from. Travelers will be denied boarding if they cannot produce such evidence and this evidence must be shown to the Irish immigration office by arrival into Ireland. All travelers from overseas, including if they are traveling onwards to Northern Ireland, must complete a COVID-19 Passenger Locator Form which is available online. The e-receipt must be saved for 14 days after arrival and produced upon request to a Member of An Garda Síochána. Travel to Ireland from specific designated states is subject to mandatory hotel quarantine of 14 days. This must be pre-booked in advance of travel. These arrangements apply to any passenger who has been in any of the risk countries in the previous 14 days, even if only transiting through. The list of the designated states will be subject to change at short notice and all passengers are required to check the list before traveling. Currently many African, North- and South American, Asian and European countries are affected by this regulation. Travelers who are fully vaccinated and have the documents to prove that do not have complete a hotel quarantine. But vaccinated travelers are obliged to have a negative/’not detected’ result from a PCR test taken in the 72 hours before arrival and complete a period of self-quarantine (e.g. at home). The updated list of designated states currently includes i.e. the following countries: Afghanistan, Angola, Argentina, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Botswana, Brazil, Burundi, Canada, Cape Verde, Chile, Colombia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Eswatini, Ethiopia, French Guiana, Guyana, India, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Maldives, Mozambique, Namibia, Nepal, Oman, Pakistan, Paraguay, Panama, Peru, The Philippines, Qatar, Rwanda, Seychelles, Somalia, South Africa, Suriname, Tanzania, Turkey, Uganda, United Arab Emirates, Uruguay, Venezuela, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Passengers who arrive in an Irish Airport or Sea Port without evidence of a negative/'not detected' test result will commit an offence and may be subject to prosecution, punishable by a fine not exceeding €2,500 or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months or both. International Transport Workers, including workers in aviation, maritime and road haulage sectors are exempt from this requirement where they are traveling in the course of performing their duties. Passengers who arrive in Ireland solely for the purpose of traveling onwards to another state and do not leave the airport are also not required to provide evidence of a test. Children under 6 years are also exempt from the testing requirement, although they are advised to restrict movements for 14 days.

Fully vaccinated people who have the documents to prove that do not have to complete mandatory hotel quarantine. Also, children will be exempted from the requirement to complete mandatory hotel quarantine. Nevertheless, even vaccinated persons still have to take a negative PCR-test taken 72 hours before departure and complete a period of self-quarantine at home or in a place specified in the passenger locator form. All passengers arriving into Ireland from designated states after 4 am on the morning of Friday, March 26, 2021 are required to pre-book accommodation in a designated quarantine facility and to pre-pay for their stay. All passengers must undergo a 14 day quarantine period at the address specified on a Passenger Locator Form. Passengers coming to Ireland from countries not classified as high risk are required to quarantine at home if they can provide a negative or "not detected" PCR test result. The quanrantine can end if a (second) negative or "not detected" PCR test result is given no less than 5 days after the arrival. The Irish Defence Forces have been designated as the State Liaison Officer (SLO) to support Ireland’s mandatory hotel quarantine policy. Upon arrival into Ireland, regardless of whether passengers arrive by sea or by air, after immigration and customs processing every person will be met by members of the Defence Forces who will ensure travelers are safely and securely transported from the port of entry to the location in which travelers will complete the pre-booked mandatory hotel quarantine. The place of residence may only be left during the quarantine period for unavoidable reasons of an emergency nature: to protect a person’s health or welfare, to leave the State, or to avail of a test when requested to do so in writing by the HSE. A free COVID-19 test must be arranged. The test should be done 5 days after you arrived in Ireland or as soon as possible after those 5 days. This test will be provided by the HSE. Travelers may leave their quarantine to take this test. Whatever the result of the test, everyone must complete the 14 day period of quarantine. Due to the classification of Ireland as a virus variant area, when traveling from Ireland to Germany, in addition to the existing registration obligation and basic quarantine obligation, proof of negative COVID-19-tests are carried out in German or English; airlines carriers are otherwise not allowed to take people over the age of six with them.

An exemption from completing the form is in place for providers of essential supply chain services such as hauliers, pilots and maritime staff. A negative result from a COVID-19 Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) test is currently the only test type considered acceptable by Ireland’s public health authorities in relation to international travel. Everyone who has received the second dose of the vaccine more than two weeks prior can meet with other fully vaccinated people from one other household, indoors, without wearing masks or staying two meters apart. Public transport capacity has resumed once again to 50%. In public transport and taxis as well as in shops and shopping centers, face protection is mandatory.

Iceland is only slightly affected from COVID-19 in comparison to other European countries as the number of new infections is on a low level. Currently, Iceland has classified all countries except Greenland as high-risk areas. From the beginning of June 2021, holders of the EU digital COVID certificates containing proof of complete vaccination, recovery from COVID-19 or a negative result of a COVID-19 test are allowed to enter Iceland without further restrictions, examinations or quarantine. As of May 31, 2021 a new list of regions and countries that are considered to be special high-risk areas for COVID-19 comes into effect (https://www.stjornartidindi.is/Advert.aspx?RecordID=19ed2aef-d651-45af-8dc6-f746065d40bd). All arriving passengers must undergo/provide at least one COVID-19 test, wherever they are coming from and at any age, including those with a vaccination certificate or a certificate of previous infections upon arrival in Iceland., which must be taken at least 72 hours prior to departure. Nationals from or passengers with a residence permit for Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, Switzerland, Vatican City and other EEA member states as well as British nationals with a residence certificate may enter Iceland. Also travellers from Australia, Israel, Japan, Rep. of Korea, New Zealand, Rwanda, Singapore and Thailand are allowed to enter Iceland. Generally, all foreign nationals may not travel to Iceland if they are arriving from a country classified as a high-risk area. Exempt from this are only Islandic nationals and i.e. passengers travelling for essential reasons (i.e. work, study or medical reasons), as well as holders of the EU digital COVID certificates. Travelers who do not have proof of a negative COVID-19 test, a completed vaccination against COVID-19 or over a survived COVID-19-infection, must be quarantined for five days after the PCR test on entry and undergo another PCR test at the end of the quarantine period. Quarantine may only be ended after a negative test result has been received, and in the event of a positive test result, isolation will be ordered. Transit travel via Iceland (without a stay in the country) is possible and is not subject to quarantine regulations. Transit stays in the country for less than 48 hours are possible without a PCR test, but only in a quarantine accommodation.

The German government approved an exception to the COVID-19 quarantine requirement for certain travelers May 12, 2021. Authorities designate countries and regions as "high incidence", "risk" or "virus variant" locations depending on local disease activity. Travelers from high-incidence and risk areas who have either received the full course of a COVID-19 vaccine approved by the European Medicines Agency no less than 14 days before arrival or have recovered from COVID-19 within the previous six months are exempt from quarantine requirements. Authorities require a positive result from a COVID-19 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test administered between six months and 28 days prior to arrival as evidence that a traveler has recovered from COVID-19. Upon entry to Germany following a stay in a risk area, high incidence area or virus variant area within the last ten days, travlers must register at www.einreiseanmeldung.de before entering the country and carry proof of having done so, be tested for infection with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus before or immediately after entering the country, and proceed directly to their destination following entry to self-isolate there for ten days in quarantine. In Germany, the individual Länder are responsible for quarantine regulations. The Länder have put in place their own regulations on the basis of a specimen regulation. Because the new specimen regulation contains significant changes, we ask that prior to entering a Land people read the regulations on quarantine and testing carefully that apply to their specific destination. By entering the post code of their destination they can find the contact information of the competent local health office using the following website: https://tools.rki.de/PLZTool/en-GB

Kosovo is classified as an area with a particularly high risk of infection even though the number of infections has currently fallen again. There are currently warnings against unnecessary tourist trips to Kosovo. There is an entry ban for travelers arriving from Brazil, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and South Africa, except for those arrivals who are Kosovo nationals.

Denmark makes a risk assessment differentiated by countries and regions into the categories "yellow", "orange" and "red", which is updated weekly. With effect from June 5, 2021 at 4:00 pm, the whole of Germany will be classified as "yellow". This means that from this date onwards, persons residing in Germany will no longer be obliged to go into domestic quarantine (self-isolation) after entering the country. However, the obligation to present a negative COVID-19 test upon entry and to retest after entry remains. Foreigners residing in EU and Schengen countries classified as "yellow" or "orange" may enter the country without providing proof of an important reason. Foreigners residing in other countries (countries outside the EU/Schengen area classified as "orange" or "red" and EU/Schengen countries classified as "red") may in principle only enter Denmark upon proof of an important reason. Entry for tourist purposes is not permitted in this case. Persons who have recovered from a previous COVID-19 infection may also present a positive COVID-19 test if that test was taken between 14-180 days and eight weeks before the flight. Further, all entrants must undergo a 10-day domestic quarantine (self-isolation), which can be shortened by another negative PCR test no earlier than four days after entry. In addition, all entrants are required to undergo a COVID-19 test no later than 24 hours after entry. If entering by air, this test must be done before leaving the airport. Children under the age of 15 are exempt from this rule. Restrictions due to the pandemic apply nationwide, possibly with regional differences. An opening plan has been drawn up for the period up to August 1, 2021, which provides for gradual relaxation depending on the incidence of infection and, where applicable, with local differences. The opening is accompanied by the use of a "corona passport" (document on test or vaccination status) or the obligation to carry proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test result no more than 72 hours old, which must be presented on request, e.g. to gain access to cultural and leisure facilities or services close to the body. Trade, gastronomy, club life, sports, cultural and recreational facilities are open, and services, including those close to the body, are permitted, although the respective rules on carrying a corona pass and hygiene regulations (spacing, covering the mouth and nose) must be observed. Nightclubs and discotheques remain closed. Where possible, the use of public transport should be avoided. A maximum of 100 people are allowed to be together in the open air. Indoors, up to 50 people are allowed to gather. More generous rules apply to outdoor events and events with a seated audience.

Airports are open and entry from certain countries is allowed regardless of nationality. Based on the development of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Cypriot government has categorized the countries in a list, reviews it regularly and adjusts the categorization as needed. Persons arriving from Germany must present a negative PCR test upon entry, which must not be older than 72 hours before departure, and must take another PCR test upon entry at their own expense. Certain categories of persons (such as Cypriot nationals) and persons coming from countries where PCR testing is not available may be tested upon arrival in Cyprus at their own expense. These individuals must go into self-isolation for three days and retest on the fourth day at their own expense. The result must then be e-mailed to the Cypriot authorities. If an air traveler tests positive upon arrival, other travelers on the flight who were seated in close proximity will also be placed in 10-day quarantine. The costs for this and any necessary treatment in case of illness will be covered by the Republic of Cyprus. Travellers from Germany who have been fully vaccinated with a vaccine approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) or with the Sputnik V vaccine may enter the country without further restrictions from 14 days after completion of the vaccination. All travelers must register online before departure to obtain a "Cyprus Flight Pass." For this purpose, a questionnaire must be completed online and a broad waiver of liability to the Republic of Cyprus in relation to COVID-19 disease must be declared. The "Flight Pass" must be printed out and carried on the flight. If this cannot be presented on arrival in Cyprus, entry refusal or a fine of 300 EUR is to be expected. Entry restrictions continue to apply to travelers coming from Germany who have stayed in a country belonging to the "gray category" of the list during the 14 days prior to arrival in Cyprus, or who have passed through a country belonging to the "gray category" in transit on their way to Cyprus. Entry from this category is allowed only to certain groups of people. These persons must present a PCR test no more than 72 hours old upon entry and enter self-isolation for 14 days or present another negative PCR test after seven days of self-isolation.

Entry into Greece by sea, air and land is generally only possible for all persons five years of age and older with a certificate of a negative PCR test from a recognized testing laboratory from the country of departure in English, German and other languages. The full name on the certificate must match the name on the identification document. The sample collection must not have taken place more than 72 hours ago. Travelers who can prove complete vaccination (in English, German and other languages, stating the full name of the traveler, the vaccine, the number of vaccine doses) by means of a written certificate and who have completed this 14 days before entry do not need a certificate of a negative PCR test. There is increasing evidence that travelers have been able to enter the country by presenting the International Certificate of Vaccination ("International Certificates of Vaccination and Vaccination Book," yellow). Alternatively, travelers who have recovered from infection in the past nine months may present a certificate of recovery issued by a government agency or certified laboratory. Alternatively, a certificate from a certified laboratory or government agency stating a positive PCR test with notation of recovery from an infection between two and nine months ago is sufficient. Regardless, a free COVID-19 rapid test is performed upon arrival in individual cases. Travelers, including those from the member states of the European Union and the Schengen Area, who meet the above conditions and enter the country by direct air via the international airports, via the seaports of Igoumenitsa, Corfu and Patras, and by land via the border posts of Evzoni (northern Macedonia), Ormeni and Promachonas (Bulgaria) are exempt from the requirement of quarantine. All other entrants must undergo a seven-day domestic quarantine. Earlier departure is possible. An online registration requirement also applies to all entries by sea, air, and land. Travelers must complete an online form ("Passenger Locator Form", PLF) at least 24 hours prior to departure for Greece. This PLF is also required for persons residing in Greece for departures from Greece. Each traveler, including children, must be listed on the PLF. According to Greek authorities, members of a household should fill out a PLF, indicating adults and children. After registration is complete, travelers will receive a confirmation with a QR code that will be automatically emailed no later than the day of entry. If no code can be presented upon entry, a fine of 500 euros is possible. Entry and exit by land for "non-essential travels", i.e. tourist trips, is possible via Bulgaria (border crossings Promachonas and Ormenio, open throughout) and Evzoni (Northern Macedonia, 7 am - 11 pm). Until further notice, entry and exit via Albania (Kakavia border crossing) and Turkey (Kipoi border crossing) is only possible for Greek nationals, persons with Greek residence permits and persons with proven permanent residence in Greece, as well as persons who can prove an urgent professional or health reason, and is only allowed from 7 am to 7 pm and 11 pm respectively.

China maintains international travel restrictions as of May 7, 2021. Authorities are banning most foreign nationals from entering China. The restrictions do not apply to Chinese nationals, foreign diplomatic passport holders, and individuals with C visas. Foreign nationals from other countries with valid residence permits for work, visiting family, and personal matters currently can re-enter China. Specially designated foreign workers with invitation letters issued by provincial or municipal government officials can also enter the country. Some immediate family members of foreign employees may obtain visas to enter for emergency humanitarian purposes. Foreign nationals traveling to mainland China for work, business, or humanitarian reasons can waive the requirement for obtaining invitation letters prior to applying for new visas if they are fully inoculated with Chinese-produced COVID-19 vaccines. Most foreigners from Canada, Belgium, France, Russia, the Philippines, India, Italy, Bangladesh, the UK, Ukraine, and Ethiopia are banned, regardless of residency status, unless they have received Chinese-made COVID-19 vaccines. Diplomatic personnel and C visa holders - generally flight and shipping crew members - are exempt from entry bans. Officials have also banned flights to and from the UK until further notice. As of May 7, 2021, officials permit essential business travel from Singapore and South Korea under fast-track arrangements. Travel is possible between Singapore and Guangdong, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang provinces and Chongqing, Shanghai, and Tianjin. A fast-track arrangement for business travelers from South Korea to ten Chinese locations, including Shanghai and Liaoning, Shandong, Jiangsu, and Anhui provinces, is also in place. Companies or government agencies can apply for special passes for inbound visitors, who must test negative for COVID-19 within 48 hours of their departure from Singapore or within 72 hours of their departure from South Korea and obtain a visa. Passengers will undergo COVID-19 testing upon arrival in China and self-isolate at designated facilities (usually hotels) until their results are available. Singapore travelers must also adhere to a preplanned itinerary, refrain from using public transport - except for private hire vehicles - for the first 14 days, and download and use a health pass while in the country. Arriving passengers testing positive for COVID-19 will undergo treatment at their own expense. As of May 7, 2021, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) manages international airline flight volume based on COVID-19 testing outcomes for passengers. If a foreign carrier achieves three weeks with no passengers testing positive, officials will permit one more flight on pre-existing routes. If five passengers of an airline test positive, the CAAC will suspend the carrier',s operations for one week, if 10 of the airline',s passengers test positive, the suspension will last four weeks. China and US regulators continue to limit available flights from each other',s countries to eight per week. Authorities also restrict Chinese airlines', international operations and limit capacity on aircraft. Some airlines continue to suspend services to and from mainland China due to significantly decreased demand. All travelers are barred from entering or exiting land border checkpoints. From September 28, 2020, onwards, foreign nationals who currently have valid Chinese residence permits for the purposes of working, visiting family, and personal matters will be allowed to re-enter the country. However, individuals with valid residence permits must undergo COVID-19 tests prior to travel and undergo 14-day quarantine periods upon arrival. Foreign nationals with residence permits that expired after March 28, 2020, are authorized to reapply for entry visas at Chinese diplomatic facilities. As of November 11, 2020, authorities in mainland China are tightening inbound travel restrictions while maintaining localized domestic movement controls amid ongoing efforts to limit the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Authorities have extended a ban on foreign nationals traveling from specific countries to include arrivals from Belgium, Canada, France, Russia, the Philippines, India, Italy, Bangladesh, the UK, Ukraine, and Ethiopia. The restrictions do not apply to Chinese nationals, foreign holders of diplomatic passports, and individuals with C visas, which are issued to flight and shipping crew members.

The travel warning for Hungary has been lifted with effect from May 30, 2021. However, the Hungarian government still advises against unnecessary tourist trips. Only Hungarian nationals can enter the country, with very few exceptions to this (e.g. passengers traveling on business, those with a positive COVID-19 test taken at most six months before arrival, who also have a recovery certificate, passengers with an immunity COVID-19 certificate issued by Bahrain, Croatia, Czechia, Georgia, Mongolia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia or Turkey). There is a general entry ban for Hungary. Entry from third countries is generally not allowed without a special reason. Flights to and from the UK have been resumed, provided that travelers undergo a mandatory quarantine. People who are subject to the general entry ban can apply for a special permit to enter Hungary, but are still subject to quarantine or testing. Applications for a special permit can only be submitted electronically via the Hungarian police in Hungarian or English mainly for: i) the participation in judicial or administrative proceedings in Hungary, which can be proven with a Hungarian document issued by a Hungarian court or an authority ii) the use of medical care with a corresponding confirmation, iii) compulsory study and exams with a confirmation from the educational institution, iv) for travel in public transit to perform work with a confirmation from the employer, v) familiy events (e.g. weddings), vi) taking care of relatives, vii) participating in an international religious event of special significance. Transit through Hungary is only possible on the specific corridor routes. Travelers must complete a health examination. Citizens of neighboring countries and Hungarian citizens who live there can enter the territory of Hungary at a distance of 30 km from the state border for a maximum of 24 hours. The negative result of an initial negative PCR test carried out before entry will be taken into account if it is taken in Hungary, from a laboratory in the Schengen area, USA or was performed in Canada and the negative test result is presented in English or Hungarian. On October 13, 2020, EU Member States passed a Council Recommendation regarding a coordinated approach to restrictions on movement in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to reduce the spread of the coronavirus outbreak, the 27 EU Member States have taken several measures, some of which have affected the right of citizens to move freely within the European Union (e.g. such as the requirement to undergo quarantine or coronavirus testing). The Recommendation identifies the following four key areas where Member States will coordinate their efforts: i) Member States shall take into account the notification rate, the test positivity rate and the testing rate when considering restriction measures as a response to the prevention of the Coronavirus spread, ii) The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control shall publish a map of all EU Member States including Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland, reflecting the risk levels within the regions in Europe by way of using a traffic light system. Areas will be classified with green, orange, red and grey colours (e.g. if not sufficient information is available), iii) On this basis, Member States shall decide on their own whether, and which specific restrictions are to be implemented towards travelers coming to their territory. However, the Member States have agreed on the same approach regarding areas marked as green, i.e. no restrictions like testing or quarantine will be implemented to travelers coming from green areas. Further, travelers in relevant functions or needs shall not be subject to quarantine measures (e.g. patients traveling for medical reasons, diplomats, journalists etc.), iv) The Member States shall provide details of any upcoming restrictions regarding the right to free movement or the cancellation of any travel restrictions to Member States and Commission. In general, entry from EU member states and Schengen member states as well as from all non-EU countries/third countries to Hungary, is only allowed for residents of Hungary and for travelers with special exemptions.

In order to reduce the spread of the coronavirus outbreak, the 27 EU Member States have taken several measures, some of which have affected the right of citizens to move freely within the European Union (e.g. such as the requirement to undergo quarantine or coronavirus testing). The Recommendation identifies the following four key areas where Member States will coordinate their efforts: i) Member States shall take into account the notification rate, the test positivity rate and the testing rate when considering restriction measures as a response to the prevention of the Coronavirus spread. ii) The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control shall publish a map of all EU Member States including Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland reflecting the risk levels within the regions in Europe by way of using a traffic light system. Areas will be classified with green, orange, red and grey colours (e.g. if not sufficient information is available). iii) On this basis, Member States shall decide on their own whether and which specific restrictions are to be implemented towards travelers coming to their territory. However, the Member States have agreed on the same approach regarding areas marked as green, i.e. no restrictions like testing or quarantine will be implemented to travelers coming from green areas. Further, travelers in relevant functions or need shall not be subject to quarantine measures (e.g. patients traveling for medical reasons, diplomats, journalists etc.) iv) The Member States shall provide details of any upcoming restrictions regarding the right to free movement or the cancellation of any travel restrictions to Member States and Commission. Airport transit is only allowed if passenger stay in special marked areas of the terminal. At airports and harbors medical screenings are carried out. Italy has established specific entry rules for each country. These specific entry rules are available at the following link: https://infocovid.viaggiaresicuri.it/index_en.html

In order to reduce the spread of the coronavirus outbreak, the 27 EU Member States have taken several measures, some of which have affected the right of citizens to move freely within the European Union (e.g. such as the requirement to undergo quarantine or coronavirus testing). The Recommendation identifies the following four key areas where Member States will coordinate their efforts: i) Member States shall take into account the notification rate, the test positivity rate and the testing rate when considering restriction measures as a response to the prevention of the Coronavirus spread. ii) The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control shall publish a map of all EU Member States including Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland reflecting the risk levels within the regions in Europe by way of using a traffic light system. Areas will be classified with green, orange, red and grey colours (e.g. if not sufficient information is available). iii) On this basis, Member States shall decide on their own whether and which specific restrictions are to be implemented towards travelers coming to their territory. However, the Member States have agreed on the same approach regarding areas marked as green, i.e. no restrictions like testing or quarantine will be implemented to travelers coming from green areas. Further, travelers in relevant functions or need shall not be subject to quarantine measures (e.g. patients traveling for medical reasons, diplomats, journalists etc.) iv) The Member States shall provide details of any upcoming restrictions regarding the right to free movement or the cancellation of any travel restrictions to Member States and Commission.
