The number of countries you can freely travel to from Hungary just increased on Sunday when Germany decided to change Hungary’s classification from a risk area to a non-risk country.

Great news for anyone who wishes to travel to Germany from Hungary as, thanks to the latest German decision, Hungary is no longer a risk territory, which means that

any restrictions about travelling to Germany were lifted on Sunday.

Index reports that Germany currently has four different classifications for foreign countries:

  • risk-free areas (no travel restrictions)
  • risk area (the virus is substantially present)
  • highly infected areas (with particularly high infection rates)
  • areas of variant concern (where the spreading of variant(s) is present).

There are a few important things to keep in mind, however. Telex warned that if someone is travelling to Germany by plane, then the procedure is the same, and you would still have to get a test or provide an immunity certificate.

Also, if you are travelling by any other means but would like to make a stop in Austria, you need to comply with the Austrian restrictions.

Where else can you travel?

Hungary has made several bilateral agreements over the past few weeks, and anyone with a Hungarian immunity certificate will be able to travel to Moldova without mandatory quarantine or negative test results from Tuesday.

Moreover, you can travel to ten other countries with the immunity certificate:

  • Bahrein
  • Romania
  • Czech Republic
  • Slovenia
  • Serbia
  • Turkey
  • North Macedonia
  • Montenegro
  • Georgia
  • Mongolia.
