A new list of countries
with a high epidemiological risk will be applying from 15th February
to all arrivals in Romania, after the list was updated last week by the
National Committee for Emergency Situations with a view to preventing the
further spread of the coronavirus pandemic. The list of countries in the
so-called amber zone includes Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the UK, Serbia,
Spain, Hungary and the Republic of Moldova, with arrivals from these countries
being asked to isolate when entering Romania. Countries like South Africa, Brazil,
the Czech Republic, Switzerland, the US, Lebanon, Portugal, the Netherlands, Qatar
and Sweden are also on the list. The quarantine rules for those arriving from
these countries were also established.




On entering the country,
travellers arriving from countries with a high epidemiological risk and who
produce a negative RT-PCR Covid test taken within the last 72 hours will be
asked to isolate for ten days at home or other stated address. Children aged 3 and
under arriving in Romania with these persons will be in isolation for a similar
amount of time, but are exempt from the presentation of a negative test result.
Travellers arriving from the countries in the amber zone who do not produce a
negative test will be asked to isolate at home or other stated address for a
period of 14 days, with the exception of arrivals from the UK, who are obliged
to present a negative test taken in the last 72 hours and isolate for 14 days.




Exempt from quarantine are
the cross-border workers entering Romania from Hungary, Bulgaria, Serbia, Ukraine
and the Republic of Moldova, as well as the Romanian citizens working for companies
based in these countries. Also exempt are Romanian athletes working in other
countries and who are returning to Romania to take part in the national team and
represent Romania in international sports competitions, as well as film crews
working in Romania based on a contract or other documents justifying the need
of their presence in this country.




The National Committee for
Emergency Situations also decided that businesses in the field of international
transport, passenger air and road transport conducting services to Romania from
areas with a high epidemiological risk, including the UK, are obliged to
prevent the boarding of persons who do not produce a negative Covid test result
from the last 72 hours or proof of vaccination, including the second dose, received
at least ten days prior to departure. Also allowed on board are persons who can
demonstrate they were infected with Covid-19 within the last 90 days of
departure, but not within the last 14 days. (CM)
