Quarantine-free entry to Greece

Visitors arriving from the EU, the UK and Schengen associated countries are exempt from completing the mandatory seven day quarantine in Greece if they can provide one of the following documents;

  • A certificate of full vaccination against COVID-19 issued by a national authority (at least 14 days after the final vaccination).
  • Documentation to prove a negative result of a PCR or rapid antigen test taken within 72 hours prior to arriving in Greece (children under six years old are exempt).
  • A certificate of recovery from COVID-19 in the past nine months issued by a public authority or a certified laboratory.

In addition, all visitors must complete a Passenger Locator Form at least a day before arriving in Greece.

Greece uses its own clarification of high risk areas and travel restrictions, hence restrictions into the country are not based on the EU Traffic Lights map.
