Current information for travelers
The Ordinance on Coronavirus Entry Regulations (Coronavirus-Einreiseverordnung – CoronaEinreiseV) regulates a uniform, nation-wide obligation to test, quarantine and furnish proof, as well as a ban on carriage from areas of variants of concern. The goal of the Ordinance on Coronavirus Entry Regulations is to reduce the risk of infection with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, since travel movements and border traffic can introduce infections and lead to new hot spots of infection.
The Ordinance on Coronavirus Entry Regulations ( CoronaEinreiseV ) expires on 7 April 2023. After that date, entry into Germany will again be possible without coronavirus-related entry restrictions while observing the general entry requirements under the law of residence and relating to the border police (information from the Federal Ministry of the Interior " Lifting of COVID-19-related restrictions ").

Ireland won't introduce 'tit-for-tat' travel restrictions for Germany
10.48 8 Jan 2021
Share this article
There won't be 'tit-for-tat' with Germany over COVID-19 travel restrictions, the Foreign Affairs Minister has insisted.
From today, air passengers arriving in Germany from Ireland will need to have had a negative COVID-19 test less than 48 hours before flying.
It applies to all passengers except those under six years of age.
URGENT TRAVEL ADVISORY From 08 January, all air passengers from Ireland to Germany, with the exception of those under 6, must produce a negative COVID test result less than 48 hours old before boarding the plane. Intending travellers are advised to contact their carrier pic.twitter.com/ecPRpbmNvf — Simon Coveney (@simoncoveney) January 7, 2021
Speaking on The Pat Kenny Show , Minister Coveney said Ireland won't be introducing a similar restriction for people arriving here from Germany at the moment.
He said: “This isn’t a tit-for-tat, that’s not how these things work… it works on the basis of public health advice.
“Just because Germany are doing something that impacts on travel from Ireland to Germany, it doesn’t mean we reciprocate.
“This is two friendly countries working together on the basis of public health advice - that’s the way the European Union should be working.
"That’s the way we work as well with the UK, by the way - as soon as we can free up international travel safely we’ll do that.”
From midnight, people arriving in Ireland from either Great Britain or South Africa will also face a new testing requirement .
They'll need to have evidence that they tested negative for coronavirus within the three days before their arrival here.
Minister Coveney today said that requirement may be extended to other EU countries if there's a higher level of COVID-19 risk than usual.

Germany has effectively halted private travel to and from Ireland, the UK and South Africa to contain the spread of coronavirus mutations.
The new regulation, applicable also to Portugal and Brazil, outlaws travel “except absolute exceptions” and comes into effect from midnight on Friday.
“We have to get ahead of the situation; that means we have to make preventative decisions so the virus cannot spread further,” said German interior minister Horst Seehofer.
The new rules will not affect cargo transport, transit passengers at airports, German citizens or foreign nationals who live permanently in Germany.

Otherwise the new regulation will allow arrivals from the five banned countries only on health or “urgent humanitarian grounds”.
Germany will review the new regulations on February 17th, along with other restrictions to contain the spread of Covid-19.
It is the second time in three weeks that Germany has restricted travel to Ireland with just a few hours’ notice.
Berlin officials said the decision was a response to a failure to agree binding restrictions at EU level. A government spokesman insisted Germany was not breaking rank but would continue to engage “intensively” with EU neighbours.
“The European negotiations are ongoing but there is a certain wriggle room for national measures,” said Steffen Seibert, spokesman for chancellor Angela Merkel.
This week she said allowing a slow spread of virus mutations in Germany – with cases now confirmed from Berlin to Bavaria – had left the country “sitting on a powder keg”.
German wanderlust
Dr Merkel was unusually blunt in her criticism of German wanderlust, reportedly telling party allies in a private briefing she wanted a “tougher border regime”.
Noting that 50,000 Germans flew daily to the Canary islands and Maldives over Christmas, she reportedly added: “We need to thin out air travel so that [people] cannot get anywhere.”
Ryanair flies six routes from Ireland to Germany, including Berlin, Hamburg and Cologne, but has already thinned out what were once daily flights to twice or three times a week.
Aer Lingus operated popular flights to Berlin, Frankfurt and Munich but a spokesman said on Friday evening the airline was no longer operating services to Germany.
Germany remains in lockdown until mid-February, with only essential services and shops open. This week infection numbers began a slow decline, pushing the incidence rate below 100 cases per 100,000 for the first time in three months.
On Friday, Germany announced 14,022 new cases within 24 hours, 4,000 fewer than a week ago, and 839 deaths within 24 hours.
After agreeing non-binding travel recommendations in Brussels, representatives from Belgium, the Netherlands and Finland indicated their countries would follow Germany’s lead and introduce their own measures.
A week ago the Dutch government announced a ban on travel from South Africa while, starting on Wednesday, Finland banned all non-essential travellers from entering the country – including from other EU member states.
Helsinki said it would consider only work that is significant for the functioning of society to be essential travel.

New requirements for Americans traveling to Europe postponed until 2025
Visitors who now travel visa-free will need to get approval prior to departure.
Americans eyed upcoming travel to European destinations slightly differently due to news of a requirement that was set to start in 2024 for U.S. passport holders. But now, EU officials have postponed the European Travel Information and Authorisation System ( ETIAS ) launch until spring of 2025.
SchengenVisaInfo.com, a website dedicated to the world's largest visa-free zone where 27 European countries abolished their internal borders known as the Schengen Area, first reported that an EU official confirmed ETIAS won't go live until May 2025, "due to continued delays with the introduction of the related Entry-Exit System (EES), which needs to be operational before ETIAS can be implemented."
An official for the European Union did not immediately respond to ABC News' request for comment.
What to know about ETIAS for US travelers
If you previously traveled to Europe without a visa, you will now need to apply for authorization through the ETIAS , before visiting.
Today, American travelers have visa-free access to 184 global destinations, according to the Henley Passport Index . And while the U.S. passport is currently ranked eighth-most powerful passport to own, that could be set to shift when the European Union adds its new documentation requirements for U.S. visitors.
The application form, which will be available on the official ETIAS website as well as a mobile application, has a fee of 7 euros or $7.79 U.S. dollars. All communication is done by email.
Once you are approved for travel, the authorization entitles visitors to stay in European countries that require ETIAS for up to 90 days within any 180-day period and travelers must be in possession of a valid ETIAS during their entire stay.

According to ETIAS, most applications should be processed within minutes, but in case an application takes longer, decisions will be sent within four days or up to 14 days if the applicant is asked to provide additional documentation.
The European Union encourages travelers to apply for an ETIAS authorization "well in advance of your planned journey."

Confirmation of application submission will be sent on email with a unique number that is needed for future reference.
Upon receiving ETIAS travel authorization, travelers are to ensure that their name, passport number and other information is correct because any mistake will prevent them from crossing the border.
If an application is refused, the email will include the reasons for the decision along with information about how to appeal.
ETIAS travel authorization is valid for three years, according to the EU, or until the travel document you used in your application expires, whichever comes first.
MORE: European heat wave breaking records with little relief in sight
The ETIAS authorization is linked to a person's travel document -- such as a U.S. passport -- and both documents will be needed to board a flight, bus or ship to enter any of the European countries that require ETIAS.
Similar to international border requirements with a passport, the ETIAS authorization doesn't guarantee automatic right of entry. "Border guards will verify that you meet the entry conditions" and anyone who does not meet the conditions "will be refused entry," according to the EU.
