The 33 countries Brits can enter without needing a single Covid test

TRAVEL rules are being relaxed around the world making it easier for Brits to go abroad.

All Covid tests for vaccinated travellers returning to the UK will be scrapped tomorrow, so if you visit a country that doesn’t require an entry test, you can travel completely test free.

We’ve rounded up the countries that don’t require any additional testing from vaccinated Brits, so if you’re double jabbed and boosted you can get in with no hassle.

Croatia

To enter Croatia, Brits just need to prove they have had a vaccination that isn’t more than a year old.

Children under 12 are exempt if their parent or guardian is vaccinated.

Czech Republic

Brits need to have had both vaccines and a booster to enter the Czech Republic without needing any tests.

Your final dose must have been administered more than 14 days prior to travel.

If you have had two jabs but no booster then you will need proof of a negative pre-departure test to enter.

Egypt

Egypt is a popular choice for Brits hoping to lap up some winter sun while avoiding a long-haul flight.

Brits who are double jabbed can jet off to Egypt with no need to do any additional tests.

Children under the age of six are exempt.

Germany

Germany lifted its UK travel ban last month – just weeks after it was introduced.

Now, Brits aged six and above can enter Germany if they are vaccinated, as long as the second jab was administered more than 14 days prior.

Greece

Earlier this week, Greece scrapped its requirement for vaccinated Brits to show evidence of a negative Covid test.

Greece still has strict rules when it comes to face masks, with everyone having to wear them in all indoor and public spaces.

Hungary

Vaccinated Brits can enter Hungary without needing a negative Covid test.

Under 18s who are unvaccinated can enter Hungary if they are travelling with a vaccinated adult.

Lithuania

Brits who have been vaccinated do not need to provide evidence of a negative Covid test to enter Lithuania.

But unvaccinated Brits are required to show proof of a negative test and self-isolate for 10 days on arrival.

Malta

Most Brits visiting Malta do not need to do a Covid test if they are vaccinated.

However, unvaccinated children aged between five and 11 do need a Covid test to enter if they are travelling with a vaccinated adult.

Children under five do not need a test.

Mexico

Mexico is a great destination if you’re looking to soak up some winter sun, with temperatures in Cancun reaching a whopping 32.2C in February.

Vaccinated Brits don’t need to do a Covid test to enter, so if you want to head off for some hot weather, you can do so.

Portugal

Fully vaccinated Brits can enter mainland Portugal, Madeira and Porto Santo without needing a test.

If you caught Covid after one dose of a two-dose vaccine, you’ll be considered fully vaccinated and still allowed to enter Portugal.

Slovenia

Vaccinated Brits can enter Slovenia without the need for any additional Covid testing.

Travellers must complete a passenger locator form 24 hours before arriving.

Spain

Brits heading to popular tourist destination Spain can enter if they are fully vaccinated.

Be warned, some Spanish islands do have strict Covid rules so make sure you are up-to-date before you arrive.

Canary Islands Tenerife, La Palma and Gran Canaria are all on Level 4 Covid alert.

Turkey

If you’re fully vaccinated you can enter Turkey without needing to test or quarantine.

All arrivals into Turkey will be subject to a medical evaluation for Covid symptoms and may be subject to random PCR testing.

Here are the other countries Brits can enter without needing Covid tests:

• Albania
• Andorra
• Armenia
• Bosnia
• Colombia
• Costa Rica
• Dominican Republic
• El Salvador
• Estonia
• Faroe Islands
• Georgia
• Honduras
• Kosovo
• Luxembourg
• North Macedonia
• Panama
• Peru
• San Marino
• Senegal
• Ukraine

Seven European holiday hotspots have put expiration dates on vaccine certificates – making it more difficult for Brits to head abroad during half term.

Among them are Spain, France, Italy and Switzerland – so don’t get caught out if you’re going on holiday in the coming days.

And these are the 33 countries Brits are still banned from entering due to Covid rules.
