EU plans to relax travel rules for international travellers from next month

Member countries of the European Union (EU) have now agreed to give vaccinated tourists in the 27-national bloc access to travel. The nations will also permit those who have recovered from COVID-19 to travel. It has been suggested by the EU that member nations should lift all testing and quarantine rules for vaccinated travellers from next month.
These vaccinated travellers must have received vaccines that are approved by the EU or the World Health Organization (WHO). It has been ruled that travellers will be permitted to travel if they have had the last dose of their vaccination at least 14 days, and no more than 270 days before arriving in the destination. On the other hand, travellers could also take the booster dose. Anyone who has recovered from the virus within 180 days of travel will also be allowed to travel in the 17-nation block of the EU.

The European Commission said, "The updates will further facilitate travel from outside the EU into the EU, and take into account the evolution of the pandemic, the increasing vaccination uptake worldwide and the administration of booster doses."
It has been reported by the EU that no tests or any additional requirement would be applied to children who are under 6 years of age, and are travelling with an adult.

It must be noted that those travellers who have received vaccination approved by the WHO, but are not approved by the EU might have to present a COVID negative certificate, or even go into quarantine. Vaccines by Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson and Novavax have been approved by the European Union.
