IMPACT – MEDIUM
The European Council updated the list of countries for which it recommends travel restrictions be lifted, adding Indonesia to the list.
Key Points:
Additional Information: Recently, the Council recommended that its member states re-implement restrictions on nonessential travel from Singapore and Ukraine. Member states have the right to impose or lift entry restrictions and are not legally bound to apply the EU Council’s recommendations.
BAL Analysis: The EU continues to update its COVID-19 travel recommendations, and while member states have, in many cases, moved to implement the recommendations, exact policies will vary from country to country. The response to the COVID-19 pandemic continues to develop, and BAL will provide additional updates as information becomes available.
