Persons entering Slovenia from outside the Schengen area (entry by land from Croatia and entry by air) and entering Slovenia from one of the red-listed countries are subject to testing upon entry (rapid antigen test). Germany, for example, is listed by Slovenia as a risk area ("red list"). Germany has classified Slovenia as an area at particularly high risk of infection (high-incidence area) effective January 24, 2021. Depending on their epidemiological situation, Slovenia divides countries into three categories. For each category, a different set of entry rules applies: 1. People with permanent or temporary residence in a country that has been listed as epidemiologically safe (the green list), and those arriving from such countries, can enter Slovenia without restrictions or quarantine. 2. People entering Slovenia, who are a resident of a country listed as having an unstable epidemiological situation (red list) or who arrive from such a country, shall be required to stay in quarantine for a period of ten days. 3.) If a country is not on epidemiologically safe country list, nor on the list of countries with an unstable epidemiological situation, it shall be considered that it has been included on the orange list. People arriving in Slovenia from an EU Member state or member of the Schengen Area that has been included on the orange list can enter Slovenia without restrictions or quarantine. Traveling in transit through Slovenia to another country within 12 hours of entry is allowed. Persons entering Slovenia in transit must have valid travel documents (including a visa or a residence permit when required), including a document stating the purpose of travel and the destination (as of July 14, 2020 this document is not required for travelers with a permanent or temporary residence in EU member states).

A 10-day quarantine rule applies to all travelers arriving in Slovenia from countries with an unstable epidemiological situation (red list), irrespective of their citizenship or residence. Travelers who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 or who have been infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the past are exempt from the quarantine obligation upon presentation of appropriate proof. ​ Travelers from countries that are not explicitly named on the "red" list can enter Slovenia without a quarantine or negative test result requirement. Travelers from Germany are subject to a 10-day quarantine obligation upon entry into Slovenia. The quarantine period can be reduced to five days if a PCR test is carried out within five days of the start of quarantine and the test result is negative.​ Quarantine shall not be ordered for persons who can submit a medical certificate proving that they have tested negative for COVID-19, which is not older than 48 hours and was performed in an EU member state, in a member of the Schengen Area, i.e. with an organization or individual recognized as suitable and credible and published on the National Laboratory of Health, Environment and Food website. ​​A rapid antigen test is not sufficient. ​ A rapid antigen test is only sufficient if it was performed in an EU Member State or in Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Switzerland and is not older than 24 hours. ​ Passengers without a medical certificate with a negative COVID-19 test result taken at most 48 hours before arrival could be subject to a 10-day quarantine. ​ A person who has been in close contact with another person who tested positive for COVID-19, or who came from abroad (from a red listed country), must limit their contact with other people. This means that the healthy person must quarantine themselves at home, i.e. self-isolate at their permanent, temporary, or other address of residence. The quarantine lasts 10 days from the last high-risk contact, or 10 days from the day of entry into Slovenia. The purpose of quarantining at home is to prevent the spread of infection. ​ The red list of epidemiologically unstable​ countries includes countries who registered ​more than 40 cases per 100,000 inhabitants over two weeks.​​ ​ Persons who intend to work in Slovenia shall be ordered to quarantine at the address stated in the employer’s certificate, submitted at the entry to Slovenia at the time of crossing the state border.

From January 29, 2021 any person aged 6 years or old, regardless of nationality and wishing to travel by air transport to the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, must present a negative result upon boarding. This applies to all departures to Luxembourg, including those from European Union Member States or the Schengen area. In addition, any person traveling by air from a third country will have to undergo an additional test for viral antigen (rapid test) on arrival at Luxembourg airport.

The rapid antigen test will be performed at a dedicated space in the baggage area of the airport and costs €10. You will have to wait approximately 15-20 minutes for your test result. If you test positive for COVID-19, a member of the health directorate will inform you about the next steps. 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. Third country nationals with residence in Australia, China (PRC), Hong Kong, Japan, Macao, New Zealand, Rwanda, South Korea, Singapore and Thailand are allowed to enter Luxembourg with the obligation to hold official docments (i.e. permanent place of residence, residence permit, work permit) with them. Other third-country nationals may not enter the territory of the Grand Duchy until March 31, 2021 It should be noted that from January 1, 2021, restrictions also apply to third-country nationals residing in the UK. Passengers from the UK must have proof of a negative PCR test dated between 48 and 72 hours old and must undergo a new PCR test at Luxemboug airport as well as self-quarantine until the test result is obtained.

There is no transit time limit for ship and aircraft crew members as well as seafarers who are on the way to or from their ship. From February 11-25, 2021 only essential travel to Latvia is permitted; passenger transportation to and from the UK, Ireland and Portugal is suspended. Until February 24, 2021, travelers from EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland can only enter Latvia for urgent and important purposes. All non-essential travel to Latvia is prohibited with very few exemptions, e.g. work, study, medical treatment. Flights from Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Serbia to Latvia are suspended. From January 15, 2021 proof of a negative COVID-19 test result is mandatory for all arrivals to Latvia, including those traveling by private transport. The test must be done no more than 72 hours before arrival at the Latvian border or before boarding a passenger carrier such as an airline. Boarding will not be allowed without the document. When traveling by private transport, a negative test must be indicated on the Covidpass form. This will be checked at random by the State Police and State Border Guard. 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. The registration and test obligation also applies to transit. 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: 1) 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. 2) 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). 3) 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.) 4) 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. The entry from other third-countries, China (PRC) and administrative territories of Hong Kong and Macao is only permitted for essential purposes and exceptions.

If the 14-day cumulative number of COVID-19 cases per 100,000 inhabitants does not exceed the rate in Latvia, then EU, EEA and Swiss Confederation citizens, as well as people with permanent residence status in those countries, when traveling from their home countries to Latvia, no longer face a 10 day self-isolation period. However, all international arrivals to Latvia must present a negative COVID-19 test result or other medical document proving that they are not infectious. A list of countries for mandatory isolation is available under the follwing link: https://www.spkc.gov.lv/lv/valstu-saslimstibas-raditaji-ar-covid-19-0/02_10_2020vm_en.pdf.

A travel ban has been imposed on countries with widespread occurrence of SARS-CoV-2 virus variants of concern (referred to as “areas of variant of concern”). Transport companies, e.g. air carriers and railway companies, may not transport any persons from these countries to Germany. Travelers aged six years or older who have been in a high incidence area or in a virus variant area in the past ten days prior to entry into Germany must carry proof that they have been tested for infection with SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus with them upon entry and present it to the competent authorities upon request and, if necessary, to the transport company prior to traveling. The following applies to anyone entering Germany from a risk area: You must undergo a coronavirus test within 48 hours prior to entry or undergo a test immediately after, self-quarantine (for 10 days; if a negative test was conducted at the earliest from the 5th day after entry, the quarantine can be ended prematurely), may not receive gu​​ests and must report to the local health authority. Fines will be imposed for violating the obligation to quarantine.​​ ​The lists of high incidence areas, virus variant areas and other risk areas are published on the website of the Robert Koch Institute.​​​ The test must have been performed no more than 48 hours prior to entry (time of swabbing). Proof of the test result must be on paper or in an electronic document in English, French or German. Travelers can find details regarding the test requirements on the website of the Robert Koch Institute. The test result must be kept for at least ten days after entry. No exceptions can be made for entry from virus variant areas. Those in transit from high-incidence areas and other risk areas are exempt from registration, testing and quarantine requirements under certain circumstances. This includes transit through a risk area without a stopover prior to entering Germany as well as transit through Germany via the fastest route, e.g. with a confirmed onward flight to a third country. Regardless of the test result, there is a quarantine obligation in accordance with the regulations of the respective Land.​

All flights connecting with the United Kingdom are suspended. Touristic journeys into the remaining parts of the country are not advised at this time. The means of entry into Finland depend on the level of infection in the country of origin: the country of origin must not exceed the epidemiological threshold of 25 new infections per 100,000 persons within a period of 14 days. The entry of residents of Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Rwanda, Singapore, South Korea, and Thailand, when arriving from the above mentioned countries, is unrestricted. On January 22, 2021, the government tightened the restrictions on entry into Finland. The new restrictions will enter into force on January 27, 2021, and will remain in force until February 25, 2021. The new restrictions aim to reduce cross-border traffic in order to prevent the spread of the new COVID-19 variants. The epidemiological situation in Finland differs considerably from that in other Schengen countries. As of January 27, 2021, Finland will restrict entry from all Schengen countries. Only essential travel for work will be permitted across internal borders. People themselves cannot determine whether their commuting is deemed essential. Entry is still permitted for healthcare and rescue service personnel (including emergency medical care) and for professionals who take care of the elderly in their duties; freight transport and logistics personnel in their duties, as well as for authorities in essential duties, diplomats, staff of international organizations, military personnel, and personnel of aid organizations in their duties, as well as for representatives of states participating in international negotiations, and for persons participating in the work of international organizations. The entry of foreign nationals is also permitted for essential and justified reasons. These include the entry of foreign media representatives; transit of regular, scheduled flights at an airport, travel to a property, private residence or holiday residence in Finland, asset arrangements in Finland, and the entry into the country of a family member of a Finnish citizen residing abroad. The entry of foreign nationals from Schengen countries subject to restrictions and certain other countries (restriction category 1) is permitted for family reasons. In restriction category 1, spouses (including cohabitant and close personal relationship), children and parents are considered relatives. This also includes parents-in-law and grandparents. This means that it is no longer possible to visit, for example siblings or cousins on the basis of a family relationship. Entry from other third countries subject to the restrictions (restriction category 2) is only possible for imperative family reasons (e.g. the birth of one's own child, a serious illness of an immediate family member, one’s own wedding, a close personal relationship). Studying in Finland is a permitted reason for entry from the Schengen countries subject to the restrictions and certain other countries (restriction category 1). People traveling with a Finnish residence permit, those in need of international protection or those traveling for other humanitarian reasons, and for compelling personal reasons are still permitted to enter the country. To cross the international border, travelers shall use border crossing points where border controls have been reinstated. Crossing the border in other places is not permitted without a border crossing permit.

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. ​ ​​​​​​Until March 15, 2021, EU-internal border controls are carried out. Temperature measurements are taken as part of the border crossing. Transit through Hungary is only possible on the specific corridor routes.

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: 1) 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. 2) 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). 3) 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.) 4) 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​. This does not apply to military con​​voys, business or diplomatic trips. An exemption may be granted by the police if entry is for court, administrative, family, health, education, or other legitimate reasons and if health screening is negative; however, travelers that are exempt must self-quarantine​​ for 10 days.​​ or participate in a double screening measure, including a five day quarantine until the results of the second test are known. If both PCR-tests are negative no further measures are required. ​Those who test positive are required to self-isolate. The time elapsed between both tests must be 48 hours.​​​​​​​​​​
