For vacation returnees and travelers to Germany, more straightforward CoV rules will apply in the future. As of 0:00 a.m., no more countries will be designated as high-risk areas with more extensive requirements such as quarantine obligations upon entry for the time being, according to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI). However, the German health ministry said the 3-G rule continues to apply to all entries into Germany.
Those who have not been vaccinated or recovered must have a negative test. This proof requirement now applies from age twelve instead of six. The RKI also points out that the classification of risk areas can still change at short notice. Until yesterday, around 60 countries were still on the high-risk regions‘ RKI list, including Austria.
The background to the new entry regulations are also changes to the German entry regulations that will take effect on Thursday. According to these, only countries in which virus variants with “more worrying characteristics” are rampant than the omicron variant that dominates in Germany are now classified as high-risk areas.
