Worldwide travel warning for unnecessary tourist travel

Worldwide travel warning for unnecessary tourist travel
Currently, warnings are issued against unnecessary travel, especially tourist travel abroad, except to the Member States of the European Union (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain*, Sweden*, Republic of Cyprus), the Schengen-associated States (Switzerland, Norway*, Liechtenstein, Iceland) and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

This applies for the time being up to and including 31 August 2020. Early termination is possible in the event of a positive development of the pandemic, a stable health system, consistent security measures for tourism and reliable return travel options, and will be announced separately in each individual case.

    We do not yet have the common and reliable data, criteria and coordination processes for the rest of the world that would make unrestricted travel possible again without incalculable risks. - Foreign Minister Heiko Maas

The Federal Ministry of the Interior provides on its website information on temporary border controls introduced at internal borders and travel restrictions for non-European air traffic.

Some countries have imposed entry bans or special controls for certain groups of persons or flights from certain regions. This sometimes also affects travellers from Germany. Therefore, travellers should obtain information from the embassy or consulate of their destination country in Germany before starting their journey.

Travellers should also consult the travel and safety instructions and obtain information from their federal state authorities about possible quarantine regulations on return. A list of the relevant state authorities can be found here.
Europe: country-specific travel advice

Although the travel warning for some European countries was lifted on June 15, travelers should inform themselves before traveling. This is because the restrictions may still apply. For example, the UK still provides for entry quarantine after 15 June and Spain has announced that it will not allow tourists to enter until the end of June. Travellers must therefore always follow the travel and safety instructions.
COVID-19

NOTE OF CAUTION

Status: 10.06.2020

The spread of COVID-19 continues to result in sometimes drastic restrictions on international flights and travel, entry restrictions, quarantine measures and disruption of public life, such as curfews in many countries.

Changes to entry and quarantine regulations are sometimes made without notice and with immediate effect.

Many travellers have been affected in several countries and prevented from travelling or returning, some remaining trapped in more distant countries and regions.

In the event of infection abroad, the quarantine regulations of the country of travel must be followed, and no return can occur.

As of 15 June 2020, except for the Member States of the European Union (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain*, Sweden*, Republic of Cyprus), the associated Schengen States (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway*, Switzerland) and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
is being warned.
This applies for the time being up to and including 31 August 2020.

Early cancellation of the travel warning will be announced separately in individual country-specific cases.

(*The lifting of the travel warning may be delayed due to national entry bans, which may remain in effect beyond June 15, 2020, or failure to meet pandemic criteria. If a country exceeds the number of newly infected persons relative to the population of less than 50 cases per 100,000 population accumulated in the past 7 days, the travel warning will remain in effect or be reissued. This currently applies to Sweden).

We strongly advise you not to take part in cruises due to the special risks. Continue to be especially careful when travelling abroad. Seek medical advice and postpone travel plans if necessary if you belong to a risk group. Carefully prepare all trips abroad and observe our instructions.
