Other travelers from EU/EEA countries must take a COVID-19 test within 24 hours of entry or take a PCR test or antigen test within 72 or 48 hours before arrival, respectively.
• Travelers from “COVID-19 risk countries” can enter the country without testing or quarantining if they are fully vaccinated or have recovered from COVID-19 in the past 180 days. Other travelers from “COVID-19 risk countries” must take a COVID-19 test within 24 hours after arrival regardless of testing that was completed before arrival.
• Travelers from “COVID-19 high-risk countries” can enter the country without testing or quarantining if they are fully vaccinated or have recovered from COVID-19 in the past 180 days.
