Do I need to quarantine in Germany
If you have been to an area classified as an area of variants of concern, and a variant of concern already exists there, you will generally need to quarantine for 14 days. This is to protect yourself and others from potentially getting the disease. Vaccination or recovery from the disease does not change this requirement.
If you are planning to travel to the United States, you will need to present a negative COVID-19 test result taken no more than 2 days before your flight. Without this, you will not be able to board your plane.
Is Germany open for tourists?
It is great to hear that the majority of places are currently open for tourists in Germany! However, it is important to keep in mind that each German federal state has its own unique COVID-19 rules. Therefore, it is suggested that everyone does their research before deciding to travel to Germany. By doing so, you can avoid any unexpected surprises and have a more enjoyable trip!
If you are a citizen of the United States with a valid US Tourist passport, you can travel to Germany and other countries of the Schengen Area for a maximum of 90 days without having to obtain a Schengen visa. However, if you wish to stay in Germany for more than 90 days, you will have to apply for a German residency permit.
What are the conditions to travel to Germany
As a rule, individuals must present a negative PCR test result in order to be allowed entry into a particular location. A rapid antigen test or proof of recovery or vaccination is not sufficient. COVID‑19 test results must not be more than 48 hours old at the time of planned entry.
It is important to note that if you are planning to stay in the Schengen area for longer than 90 days, you will need to obtain a visa. Overstaying your welcome can result in serious consequences, so be sure to plan your trip accordingly.
Do you still need to be vaccinated to go to Europe?
The European Union should allow travellers to enter if they have completed the full primary vaccination series of a COVID-19 vaccine approved by the EU or the World Health Organization. There should be a maximum of 270 days between the completion of the vaccination series and travel.
In order to travel to any of the Schengen-zone countries, American citizens (as well as travelers from 58 other countries) will need to obtain a European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) visa waiver beginning in spring 2023. The waiver will allow travelers to stay in the Schengen area for up to 90 days within a 180-day period.
