Croatia: PCR test, not older than 48 hours<\/h2>\r\nTherefore, as of now, the following continues to apply until probably March 31, 2021, as also communicated by the Croatian tourism authorities<\/a>:<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\"...Persons coming to the Republic of Croatia from EU\/EEA member states\/regions that are not currently on the so-called green list of the European Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, regardless of their nationality, must present a negative SARS-CoV-2 PCR test, which is not older than 48 hours (calculated from the time of swabbing until arrival at the border crossing), or perform a SARS-CoV-2 PCR test immediately after arrival in the Republic of Croatia (at their own expense), with the obligation to go into self-isolation until a negative result is obtained. If PCR testing is not possible, 10 days of self-isolation will be required.\"\r\n

Croatia: Travelers from Tyrol to undergo at least 7 days of quarantine<\/h2>\r\nFor travelers to Croatia from the Tyrol, a special regulation<\/a> is currently still in effect:<\/strong>.\r\n\r\n\"Nationals of the third countries that are on the list of the Croatian Institute of Public Health and to whom special epidemiological measures apply, must present a negative PCR test not older than 48 hours upon entering the Republic of Croatia. They are also required to undergo a mandatory 14-day self-isolation period, which may be shortened if the individual has a SARS-CoV-2 PCR test performed at his or her own expense in one of the authorized institutions no earlier than the seventh day of isolation and if the test is negative.\"\r\n

Croatia: On-site testing also possible<\/h2>\r\nThose who were unable to have a PCR test performed in their home country prior to travel, or who are unable to cross the border into Croatia within 48 hours of the test, also have the option of having the test done on-site in Croatia. According to the Croatian authorities, the test not available when crossing the border will be noted in the entry data. At the same time, the person entering the country will be asked to take the test immediately.\r\n\r\nIn the majority of cases, the test centers take over the reporting of the test result to the authorities, but we advise you to have this explicitly confirmed and to keep all documents carefully. Here is the link to the test centers known so far, but the list will expand considerably with the start of the tourist season, as the Croatian Ministry of Tourism announced.\r\n\r\nIn Croatia, masks are mandatory even indoors if a distance of 1.5 to 2 meters cannot be maintained. Outdoors, mask obligation applies if it is not possible to keep a distance of 1.5 meters.\r\n

Croatia: Restaurants and cafes serve only outside<\/h2>\r\nAlready since March 1, the operation of restaurants, bars and coffee houses is allowed only on the terraces from 6:00 to 22:00. While on the terraces of catering establishments must comply with the epidemiological measures and the minimum distance. Bakeries and stores selling bread and bakery products may be open until 10:00 pm. The delivery of food is allowed in compliance with all epidemiological measures.\r\n

Croatia: maritime borders are open<\/h2>\r\nFor private watercraft, as it is called in official German, the sea borders are still open. The conditions apply when entering Croatia, which are also valid at the land borders. In detail you can read the here<\/a>.\r\n

Slovenia: transit possible, entry with PCR test, antigen test, proof of vaccination possible<\/h2>\r\nTransit through Slovenia<\/a> is possible without PCR testing, but should be completed within six hours. Stopovers for refueling are not expressly prohibited, but overnight stays are not allowed by transit regulations. Germans or Austrians wishing to stay longer in the country are subject to a 10-day quarantine requirement upon entry. A test (PCR or antigen) for the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) can be performed at the earliest 5 days after the start of quarantine. If the test result is negative, the quarantine is considered to be over. However, it is better to enter the country with a negative test. Then it is valid that from the quarantine obligation those persons are released, who are\r\n

\r\n
• can present a negative test for SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) upon entry. The test must be either a PCR test no more than 48 hours old from the time of swabbing or an antigen test no more than 24 hours old from the time of swabbing. The test must have been performed in an EU member state or in a member state of the Schengen area.<\/li>\r\n
• be able to provide a certificate of vaccination against Covid-19 stating that at least 7 days have elapsed since receipt of the second dose of Biontech\/Pfizer vaccine, or at least 14 days have elapsed since receipt of the second dose of Moderna vaccine, or at least 21 days have elapsed since receipt of the first dose of AstraZeneca vaccine.<\/li>\r\n \t
• Be able to provide a certificate of a positive antigen or PCR test result for the SARS-CoV-2 virus. At the time of entry into Slovenia, that result must be older than 21 days and must not be older than 6 months.<\/li>\r\n
• Be able to present a medical certificate\/attest stating that an illness with Covid-19 has been overcome and no more than 6 months have passed since the onset of symptoms.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\nWhether the quarantine may be completed, for example, on their own ship, should be clarified in each individual case with the respective marina.\r\n

  Italy: transit possible, transit to the ship and continue to Croatia possible<\/h2>\r\nItaly handles it once again a bit more complicated. According to current information from the Italian Embassy in Berlin, the entry for Germans and Austrians is theoretically possible at any time. But since in the orange and red colored regions a traffic between the respective municipalities is not allowed, at the latest from the local border Tarvisio when entering from Austria to Italy, for example, a continuation of the journey would not be allowed if the destination should be Lignano.\r\n\r\nNow, however, the exception: If I, as an Austrian or German citizen, would like to go to my ship in the Lignano region and then immediately continue my journey by ship to another country, for example Croatia, this is permitted by transit, as the Italian Embassy in Berlin informed SeaHelp upon request. Likewise, of course, transit via Italy to Slovenia is generally allowed.\r\n

  Italy: In case of doubt, ask the responsible prefecture in writing<\/h2>\r\nResourceful owners also like to invoke the secondary residence regulation. The Italian provision states, \"The movement towards \"secondary residence\" is now generally possible, that is, it is considered a case of return to the household. Considering that in some regions or provinces decrees have been issued that contain more restrictive rules than those in force at the national level (which in some cases explicitly prohibit the visit of second homes), it is necessary to carefully check that there are no specific prohibitions in place locally.\r\n\r\nIf in doubt, contact the relevant prefecture directly.\" In any case, the request to the prefecture should be made in writing and one should also insist for a written answer in order to have something to show in case of an inspection.\r\n\r\nWhether a ship represents a secondary residence, however, the Italian embassy has considerable doubts and does not consider itself responsible for an assessment of the facts. One refers there likewise completely pragmatically to an inquiry with the responsible prefecture. Owners in the Lignano region, however, can save themselves the trouble: Here there is a prohibition to visit second homes and likewise all activities in connection with leisure boats are not allowed.\r\n

  Current incidences Italy and Slovenia (coast)<\/h2>\r\nTo provide an answer to this pressing question, SeaHelp has now also compiled the 7-day incidence and 14-day incidence from the coastal regions of Northern Italy<\/a> in the area from Venice to Trieste included, which are prepared daily updated. And because many German and Austrian yacht owners also use Slovenian marinas, Slovenia's figures have also been included.\r\n

  Now Corona data from Lignano to Dubrovnik<\/h2>\r\nOr to put it another way: From now on, users of our homepage can access all Corona data<\/a> from the areas covered by SeaHelp, from Lignano to Dubrovnik, at a glance and thus make a risk assessment for themselves.\r\n

  Comparability of Corona data important<\/h2>\r\nWithout exception, the data comes from official sources, which ultimately also provide the same figures to the EU<\/a>. The difference to the SeaHelp presentation: we prepare it clearly and relate it exclusively to the relevant coastal regions, so that visitors to our homepage can see at a glance what the current situation is in their target area. Moreover, the data are prepared according to the usual forms in the tourists' countries of origin, in order to better compare them with the corona situation at home.\r\n

  A more differentiated view of infection incidence is desirable<\/h2>\r\nHowever, we also have a little hope: If one can see at a glance how the Corona numbers develop in northern Italy, Slovenia or the coastal regions of Croatia, this should also lead in the long term to the fact that on the part of the governments in Austria and Germany the whole happening is again somewhat more differentiatedly regarded and one changes over instead of countries comprehensive travel warnings again to partial travel warnings.\r\n

  Incidence values for Lignano, Udine region<\/h2>\r\nCurrently, the incidence of infection is also developing differently in different regions: for example, the 7-day incidence in the Udine region, which includes Lignano, is currently (as of March 1) 262.9, while the 14-day incidence is 505.3. But beware: the numbers in the region are declining and are likely to be at a much lower level on the coast.\r\n\r\n

  Ownership crucial<\/h2>\r\nBut incidence values are one thing; the reality for boat and yacht owners whose vessels are based in the relevant regions is ultimately quite different: Stays in the fresh air, preferably still in sunshine, give the dangerous aerosols hardly a chance to transport the corona viruses. Especially if one keeps an appropriate distance and wears a mask at least when these distance rules cannot be observed. Ultimately, it is up to each person how he behaves and whether he exposes himself to the risk of infection, whether in Germany, Austria, Italy, Slovenia or Croatia.\r\n\r\n \r\n

March are subject to much stricter measures, for German citizens the presentation of an entry declaration and a negative PCR or antigen test, not older than 48 hours<\/a> is sufficient.\r\n

  Spring temperatures actually attract boat owners<\/h2>\r\nAs spring-like temperatures slowly take hold in Italy and the SeaHelp employee in Lignano is allowed to leave his jacket in the office at least during the midday hours when it is almost 20 degrees in the shade, there is of course also an urgent desire among most boat and yacht owners to winterize their vessel for the upcoming 2021 water sports season.\r\n

  Lignano yellow zone<\/h2>\r\nBut the trip to the Italian Adriatic does not turn out to be quite simple after all, even though the preferred region of Lignano is designated as a yellow zone, making it one of the areas less affected by the corona virus.\r\n

  Declaration of entry and negative PCR or antigen test<\/h2>\r\nAs a general rule, entry into Italy is permitted from European Union countries, including Germany, as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland; however, travel within Italy is permitted only for valid reasons. Presentation of an entry declaration and a negative PCR or antigen test, which must not be older than 48 hours, is required. Without a negative test result, travelers must go into quarantine.\r\n

  Austrians: 3 tests and 14 days quarantine until at least March 5<\/h2>\r\nBecause of the spread of the South Africa variant of the coronavirus, Italy is tightening rules for travelers entering the country from Austria. Travelers from Austria to Italy, but especially Austrian citizens, must generally undergo a PCR\/antigen test and a 14-day quarantine if the travelers have stayed in or transited through Austria for more than 12 hours in the past 14 days. For them, it is expected to apply until March 5, 2021, in addition:\r\n

  \r\n \t
  • register via the entry online form<\/a>,<\/li>\r\n \t
  • carry a negative antigen or PCR test,<\/li>\r\n \t
  • submit to a second test within 48 hours,<\/li>\r\n \t
  • register with the locally responsible health authority (ASL)<\/a>,<\/li>\r\n \t
  • go into quarantine for 14 days and<\/li>\r\n \t
  • get tested again at the end of the 14-day quarantine period.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n

    Last decision is usually made at the border<\/h2>\r\nIf checks are carried out at the border on entry, much depends on the good will of the officials carrying out the checks, because the ban on traveling to other regions within Italy also applies until further notice; valid reasons are the exception. Police authorities may therefore prohibit entry into Italy if the stated final destination of the trip is in a region other than where the entry takes place.\r\n

    Maintenance work on ships not a reason for entry<\/h2>\r\nIncidentally, necessary business trips, which previously included maintenance work on ships in Italian marinas, are no longer considered exceptions to the rule.\r\n

    In practice: few controls on entry to Italy<\/h2>\r\nItaly would not be Italy, however, if there were not a solution for everything. Travelers report rather rare controls at the borders with Austria. About controls in the country we have so far hardly usable information. Nevertheless, those who \"cheat their way through\" can face heavy penalties.\r\n

Mind you, this is not exclusively about vacationers, but about yacht owners or real estate owners who want to check on their property abroad. Or people who work abroad and want to return to their families over Christmas and New Year's Eve. For all these groups of people with their different interests, we are once again trying to explain the current situation in a simple and understandable way.\r\n\r\nHowever, we recommend that you always follow the links as well, because the expiration date of the respective regulations ultimately also depends on the further spread of the coronavirus.\r\n

    What applies in Italy with regard to the coronavirus?<\/h2>\r\nItaly has a 14-day incidence 428.3<\/a> on 12\/14\/2020. Those entering will need proof of either a negative PCR or antigen test. The complete requirements are detailed on the Italian embassies' homepages<\/a>. In addition, however, there must be a valid reason that cannot be postponed.\r\n\r\nAt the express request of the Italian embassy, concerns about a yacht or real estate are not among the valid reasons for a visit to Italy. If you want to be on the safe side, you should clarify the issues in writing with the relevant authorities and the border police on the spot. However, as this is unlikely to be feasible in practice, the embassies strongly advise against tourist travel, especially as tightening of the situation from 21 December onwards cannot be ruled out, as Italy's government wants to prevent increased travel over Christmas and New Year's Eve in any case. Transit is possible at any time, border controls take place sporadically. Violations of the rapidly changing regulations are subject to fines, some of which are severe. Therefore, the same applies here: Before starting your trip, you should quickly get more information.\r\n

    What is valid in Slovenia concerning the coronavirus?<\/h2>\r\nAt present, anyone who can present a negative PCR test for the coronavirus, which must not be older than 24 hours, is allowed to travel to Slovenia (14-day incidence 1006.0<\/a>), as stated on the homepage of the Slovenian embassy in Berlin<\/a>. Those who cannot present the PCR test must go into 10-day quarantine after entering Slovenia. The quarantine in Slovenia can be terminated prematurely if a PCR test is carried out on site on the fifth day, which documents a negative result for the COVID-19 pathogen. Transit through Slovenia, which may last a maximum of 12 hours, is possible at any time. Border controls take place.\r\n

    What is the situation in Croatia regarding coronavirus?<\/h2>\r\nWith a 14-day incidence of 1208.8<\/a>, Croatia is clearly the EU country most affected by coronavirus. The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic is mainly inland, and the coastal regions are rather less affected, with the exception of the metropolitan areas of Rijeka and Split. Especially in Istria, the situation seems to be relatively relaxed.\r\n\r\nThose wishing to enter Croatia must be able to present a negative test, no older than 48 hours, otherwise they will be turned away at the border, where strict controls are now carried out. There is a theoretical possibility to make up for this test immediately after arrival in Croatia, but until the result you have to go into quarantine. Exceptions for foreign boat owners or real estate owners do not provide the latest regulations. By Christmas, a further tightening of the epidemiological regulations is to be expected, as the Croatian health system already seems to be overloaded. Here is the link<\/a> to the current regulations. Transit is also possible in Croatia.\r\n

    What is valid in Austria regarding the coronavirus?<\/h2>\r\nFor travelers returning to Austria<\/a>, the following applies: according to the announcement of the Austrian federal government on December 2, 2020, entry from a risk country is to be determined from December 19, 2020, until presumably January 10, 2021, within the framework of an entry regulation yet to be published. Individuals entering from a high-risk area would then be required to spend 10 days in quarantine. After five days, a PCR test can be taken, allowing early termination of quarantine if the test result is negative. This regulation<\/a> is valid until December 19, no quarantine was therefore required upon return from the Croatian areas of Brod-Posavina, Istria, Koprivnica-Kri\u017eevci, Osijek-Baranja, \u0160ibenik-Knin, Vara\u017edin and Zadar.\r\n\r\nAfter December 19, the situation changes, then a quarantine is generally required upon return from Croatia, which can be broken only after the 5th day by PCR or antigen test, as announced in the Austrian Federal Law Gazette<\/a>.\r\n

    What applies in Germany regarding coronavirus?<\/h2>\r\nTravelers returning<\/a> from coronavirus risk areas<\/a>, i.e., virtually from all over Europe with only a few exceptions, must register on the portal www.einreiseanmeldung.de<\/a> before re-entry and then receive a confirmation that must be presented during controls. In general, travelers returning to the country must spend ten days in quarantine, which can be ended at the earliest after the fifth day by presenting a negative test result. Ultimately, many powers regarding subsequent testing and quarantine regulations lie with the respective federal states, so it seems advisable to inquire with the health department responsible for the place of residence even before traveling to a risk area. The measures are initially limited until January 10, how it will continue thereafter depends on the epidemiological situation in Germany.\r\n

In Italy and Croatia in particular, further tightening of the Corona measures is expected, and we will provide information on this on our homepage<\/a> as soon as possible.","post_title":"Entry chaos because of Corona pandemic throughout Europe: <\/span><\/span>Who may travel - what awaits travelers in times of Corona virus?","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"corona-entry-croatia-adria-eu","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-12-17 13:38:53","post_modified_gmt":"2020-12-17 12:38:53","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.sea-help.eu\/news-general\/corona-entry-croatia-adria-eu\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":24811,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2020-10-30 15:42:27","post_date_gmt":"2020-10-30 14:42:27","post_content":"

    On October 30, 2020, Germany updated its travel warnings<\/a> due to the increasing number of new coronavirus infections throughout Europe and, among other countries, declared Italy (with the exception of the region of Calabria), Croatia (entire Croatia), Austria (excluding young wood and Mittelberg) and Slovenia as risk areas<\/a> as of November 1, 2020. When returning from risk areas, a corona test must be carried out within ten days of returning home and quarantine is mandatory.<\/a><\/p>\r\n

    When is the travel warning from Austria for Adriatic region?<\/h2>\r\n

    Even if at present on the part of the Austrian government in addition still nothing further communicated, one may assume that also Austria will follow shortly the German measures, at least regarding Croatia. In particular Austrian citizens, who are still in the areas of the with travel warning stage 4 (among other things Istria, Sibenik Knin and Zadar) should be prepared, because the Austrian Ministry of Health is well-known for \"quick shots\".<\/p>\r\n

    Quarantine and test for travel returnees from risk areas<\/h2>\r\n

    German travelers who enter Germany from a risk area must go into quarantine and inform their local health authority. Since August 8, every person entering Germany from a risk area must also present a negative corona test not older than 48 hours or be tested for corona infection within ten days of arrival. If the test result is negative, the quarantine can be lifted, according to the homepage of the German government.<\/p>\r\n

    Further regulations expected on November 8<\/h2>\r\n

    It continues: On August 27, the federal and state governments decided to further develop the quarantine rules. A new model quarantine ordinance was drawn up to achieve a uniform regulation throughout Germany. The model quarantine ordinance is a working aid for the federal states, on the basis of which the states issue their own regulations within the scope of their jurisdiction. It is planned that the regulations of the different countries will generally come into force on November 8, 2020.<\/p>\r\n

    Croatia: Now travel warning for whole Croatia<\/h2>\r\n

    Regarding Croatia, the homepage of the German Foreign Office states that the COVID-19 infection rate in Croatia remains at a high level. In meanwhile all counties the incidences lie at present with more than 50 cases per 100,000 inhabitants on seven days, why Croatia was classified as risk area. Source: Federal Foreign Office<\/a><\/p>\r\n

    Slovenia: Travel Warning for all of Slovenia<\/h2>\r\n

    Regarding the situation in Slovenia, the German Foreign Office writes: \"Due to the high number of infections, there are warnings against unnecessary tourist trips to the regions of Primorsko-Notranjska, Koro\u0161ka, Zasavska, Osrednjeslovenska, Savinjska, Gorenjska, Jugovzhodna Slovenija, Pomurska, Podravska, Posavska and Gori\u0161ka. This applies to the whole of Slovenia from 1 November 2020. Source: German Federal Foreign Office<\/a><\/p>\r\n

    Italy: Travel Warning for all of Italy except Calabria<\/h2>\r\n

    New infections have also increased in Italy. Here the partial travel warning was likewise extended to the whole country, as is written there: Before not necessary, routistic journeys into the regions Abruzzen, Aostatal, autonomous province Bozen South Tyrol, Emilia Romagna, Friuli Julian Veneto, Campania, Latium, Liguria, Lombardei, Piedmont, Sardinien, Toskana, Veneto and Umbrien is warned due to high infection numbers. From November 1, 2020, this applies to the whole of Italy, with the exception of the region of Calabria. Source: Federal Foreign Office<\/a><\/p>\r\n

    Austria: Travel warning for all of Austria except Jungholz and Mittelberg<\/h2>\r\n

    With regard to Austria, Germany has so far warned against unnecessary tourist trips to the provinces of Vienna, Tyrol (with the exception of the municipality of Jungholz), Vorarlberg (with the exception of Kleinwalsertal\/the municipality of Mittelberg), Salzburg, Upper Austria, Lower Austria, Burgenland and Styria due to high infection rates. This will apply to the whole of Austria from 1 November 2020, with the exception of the municipality of Jungholz (Tyrol) and Kleinwalsertals\/the municipality of Mittelberg (Vorarlberg). Source: Federal Foreign Office<\/a><\/p>\r\n

    Adjustments to infection events in two weeks at the earliest<\/h2>\r\n

    These German travel warnings, which, as explicitly stated, do not constitute a travel ban, are likely to be related to the general measures in Germany aimed at reducing social contacts. In 30 days at the latest, and in 14 days at the earliest, we expect a reassessment of the situation, depending on the infection rates in the respective countries.<\/p>\r\n

    Anyone who still wants to travel from Germany or Austria to the Adriatic Sea to Italy, Slovenia or Croatia will hardly find their way through the jungle of mutual travel warnings in the context of the Corona Pandemic. One wrong decision, and at home, quarantine and one, sometimes two expensive PCR tests threaten. The SeaHelp editorial team once took the trouble to thoroughly sift through the thicket of travel warnings so that you can see at a glance what you are allowed to do and what you should leave alone or approach with extreme caution in times of corona virus.<\/p>\r\n

    German travel warning for almost all of Austria<\/h2>\r\n

    One however in front: If Austria's Minister of Health Anschober in the German television on the occasion of the German travel warning for Austria<\/a> with the words, he is not a friend of inflationary mutual travel warnings can be quoted, is before this background again recalled, how he proceeded even at that time with the topic travel warning Croatia. Those of its compatriots, who stood 14 hours and longer in the traffic jam<\/a>, will surely not forget that so fast.<\/p>\r\n

    Travel warning Austria<\/a> for Croatia<\/h2>\r\n

    The Austrian Foreign Ministry informs on its homepage<\/a> that a partial travel warning (security level 5) exists for Croatia in connection with the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) for the entire national territory with the exception of the regions Brod-Posavina, Istria, Koprivnica-Kri\u017eevci, Osijek-Baranja, \u0160ibenik-Knin, Vara\u017edin and Zadar. [mapsvg id=\"24553\"]<\/p>\r\n

    Austria's travel warning for Croatia: Those returning to Austria from the grey-shaded areas do not need to go into quarantine and do not require a PCR test. Transits through the regions marked in red and transit through Slovenia are considered transit. (Attention: The southern part of the island of Pag (town of Pag, Kolan and Povljana) belongs to the County of Zadar!)<\/em><\/div>\r\n

    The official text continues: For the regions (Brod-Posavina, Istria, Koprivnica-Kri\u017eevci , Osijek-Baranja, \u0160ibenik-Knin, Vara\u017edin and Zadar) a High Security Risk (Security Level 4) applies. Continued restrictions on air travel and travel and extensive restrictions on public life are to be expected for the time being. Therefore, we do not recommend travel that is not absolutely necessary. Without restrictions (PCR test\/quarantine) one may only enter Austria from the regions of Brod-Posavina, Istria, Koprivnica-Kri\u017eevci, Osijek-Baranja, \u0160ibenik-Knin, Vara\u017edin, Zadar.<\/p>\r\n

[mapsvg id=\"24548\"]<\/p>\r\n

    Germany's travel warning for Croatia: Germany has issued only a partial travel warning for certain regions of Croatia. Also here applies analogously to Austria: Who returns from the grey deposited regions, must neither go into quarantine nor complete a PCR test. (Attention: The southern part of the island of Pag (town of Pag, Kolan and Povljana) belongs to the County of Zadar!)<\/em><\/div>\r\n

    Travel Warning Austria for Slovenia<\/h2>\r\n

    Slovenia has a high security risk (security level 4) in connection with the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19). From 23.10.2020 the coastal region (between Koper and Portoroz) is also a red zone. This means that the whole of Slovenia is a red zone. Here<\/a> you can also read on the page of the Austrian Foreign Ministry: From Slovenia you can enter Austria without any restrictions<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n

    Travel Warning Germany for Slovenia<\/h2>\r\n

    In Slovenia, the following regions are considered risk areas for German tourists: Pomurska (since 17 October), Posavska (since 24 October), Primorsko-Notranjska (since 23 September), Savinjska (since 7 October), Zasavska (since 7 October).

    The eight municipalities Ankaran, Diva\u010da, Hrpelje-Kozina, Izola, Komen, Koper, Piran and Se\u017eana (shaded grey) are currently still excluded from the German travel warning for Slovenia, but this may change quickly in view of current developments.<\/div>\r\n

     <\/p>\r\n

    Travel Warning Austria for Italy<\/h2>\r\n

    You can also read about this on the homepage of the Austrian Foreign Ministry: For the whole of Italy as well as for the Vatican (Holy See) and San Marino high security risk (security level 4) applies in connection with the spread of the corona virus (COVID-19). All persons entering Italy must carry the duly completed self-declaration form with them throughout their journey. More information here<\/a>.\u00a0Austrians<\/a> are not currently subject to quarantine obligations for travel from Italy either.<\/p>\r\n

    Travel Warning Germany for Italy<\/h2>\r\n

    The following travel warnings apply to German citizens who currently intend to travel to Italy: Abrruzzo (since October 24), Valle d'Aosta (since October 24), Emilia-Romagna (since October 24), Friuli-Venezia Giulia (since October 24), Campania (since October 17), Lazio (since October 24), Liguria (since October 17) Lombardy (since October 24), Piedmont (since October 24), Sardinia (since October 24), Tuscany (since October 24), Umbria (since October 24), Veneto (since October 24), autonomous province of Bolzano-Alto Adige (since October 24). Here the link<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n

    Is Croatia treated differently by the Austrians?<\/h2>\r\n

    If one looks at the 7-day incidences<\/a> (as of 23. 10. 2020), it is noticeable that the Austrian government obviously gives Croatia, which is particularly popular among Austrian holidaymakers, special treatment compared to Slovenia: While the 7-day incidence value for Slovenia is 250.9 (as of October 21, 2020), only warning level 4 applies, and warning level 5 applies to Croatia with the exception of the coastal regions of Istria, Sibenik, and Zadar (warning level 4), although Croatia only has a 7-day incidence of 144. That means: Whoever enters Austria from Slovenia does not have to go into quarantine, whoever enters Croatia (except Istria, Sibenik, Zadar) must go into quarantine or show a PCR test. Against this background, the Austrian Ministry of Health should actually reflect on the statements of its minister.<\/p>\r\n

    Transit always possible<\/h2>\r\n

    Despite the travel warnings - a transit through Slovenia, Austria or Italy is possible at any time. However, due to the rapid development of the Corona pandemic, we recommend checking the current situation at the destination before starting your journey. This applies in particular to local measures to contain the pandemic in the respective destination area.<\/p>\r\n
