ENTRY INFORMATION
THINGS TO KNOW WHEN TRAVELING TO THE OLYMPIAREGION SEEFELD
WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN ENTERING AUSTRIA?
Entry from countries in Annex 1 (low incidence of infection): 3-G rule - vaccinated, recovered or tested persons may enter from a country in List A. The certificates must be written in German or English.
Entry from countries listed in Annex 2 (virus variant countries) is generally prohibited and only possible for restricted groups of persons (e.g. Austrian citizens or EU citizens, etc.). These persons must present a negative molecular biological test result (PCR test), register for entry and immediately enter a ten-day quarantine, from which they can be released at the earliest 5 days after entry with a further molecular biological test. A quarantine exemption applies to special groups of persons (persons entering the country for professional reasons, family reasons, etc.).
Entry from other countries not listed in Annex 1 and Annex 2: Here too, the 3-G rule applies, as well as entry registration and 10-day quarantine, free testing is possible after the 5th day. Quarantine and registration requirements do not apply to vaccinated persons (fully immunised & 14 days waiting period), regular commuters, persons entering the country for work or family reasons, etc.
WHAT IS IMPORTANT ON DEPARTURE?
Several European countries have already relaxed their restrictions for return travel. Return travel restrictions depend on the country of origin:
- Return journey of Austrian guests: From the Olympiaregion Seefeld, guests can return to their Austrian home town without any conditions.
- Return journey to Switzerland/Liechtenstein: No testing, registration or quarantine obligations apply for the return journey from Tyrol by land.
- Return journey to Germany: Those travelling by land from Austria to Germany do not have to show any corona-related entry restrictions, such as digital entry registration or 3 G proof.
The current positive test results in the Olympiaregion Seefeld (Seefeld, Leutasch, Scharnitz, Mösern and Reith) are continuously updated on the dashboard of the Tyrolean provincial government.
