The Czech Republic will open its borders from Monday to Austrians who have already received the first Corona vaccination. This was announced by the new Czech Health Minister Adam Vojtech on Friday. This has been confirmed in an Austrian Press Agency press release. People who have already been vaccinated once will be allowed to enter the country without restrictions. This regulation also applies to Croatia, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia. Vaccination certificates from these seven countries will be recognized in the Czech Republic, Vojtech explained.

The openings from Monday happen within the framework of reciprocity agreements. In addition, as of Monday, restaurants in the Czech Republic will again be allowed to receive guests inside.

Only at the beginning of last week, the outdoor area of gastronomy had been reopened after months of Corona lockdown. The minister also announced that further easing will proceed more quickly than previously planned. The Czech Republic was at times a focal point of the pandemic in Europe.
