Travel: List of EU Countries Keeping in Place COVID Restrictions in June & Entry Rules Explained

  • 6 June, 22

After taking into account the low infection rates and with the summer season being just weeks away, the majority of European Union and European Economic Area countries have already dropped all of their COVID-19 entry rules.

The nine countries listed below still require travellers to follow Coronavirus entry rules:

Estonia

Finland

France

Germany

Malta

Netherlands

Portugal

Slovakia

Spain

Portugal updated its entry rules earlier in April. However, the country still requires all travellers to follow COVID entry rules.

According to the official travel portal of Portugal, Visit Portugal, all travellers must present a valid vaccination, recovery, or test certificate.

Nonetheless, travellers should make sure to check what kind of rules apply to them depending on their country of origin as Portugal does not recognises COVID passes of all countries.

Currently, Portugal recognises all COVID certificates issued in EU countries. In addition, passes issued in tens of other third countries are also recognised.

Similar to mainland Portugal, the Azores also require travellers to present COVID proof on their arrival. In contrast, Madeira has already lifted all of its rules. All travellers are permitted restriction-free entry to Madeira.
