IMPACT – HIGH

The German government has removed all countries from its high-risk areas list.

Key Points:

  • Travelers, regardless of their departure country, must complete digital entry registration, have proof that they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and proof of a negative PCR or antigen test taken within 48 hours before arrival, or they must have proof of recovery within 90 days before arrival.

Additional information: Children under the age of six are exempt from testing requirements. More information on Germany’s entry requirements and health protocols can be found here.
