Stricter entry regulations have been in force in Austria since midnight. Vaccinated people in particular now have to pay attention to a few things in order to be unavoidably put into quarantine. The principle that two vaccinations are sufficient to qualify as "fully vaccinated" has been dropped.
The Ministry of Health, headed by Wolfang Mückstein (Greens), told Aviation.Direct that only people who have already received a booster vaccination can enter Germany without the additional PCR test. The PCR testing does not necessarily have to be carried out abroad, but alternatively the free offers in Austria can be used within 48 hours.
For a better understanding, fictitious case studies are shown here:
1. Person who has been vaccinated three times
In this case, you have already received the so-called booster vaccination and do not need an additional PCR test for entry. There is also no quarantine. The so-called pre-travel clearance does not have to be completed. Caution! If you come from so-called virus variant areas then different regulations apply.
2. Person vaccinated with Johnson & Johnson and then boosted with Moderna or Pfizer
In this case, the same rules apply as for people who have been vaccinated three times (see point 1).
3. Person who has been vaccinated twice
Apart from the special case described in point 2, a negative PCR test is required in addition to proof of vaccination. If this cannot be presented or if you want to be tested in Austria, you have to fill out the so-called pre-travel clearance. The PCR test must then be carried out within 48 hours of entry. You are in quarantine until the findings are available. Caution! If you come from so-called virus variant areas then different regulations apply.
4. Recovered without vaccination
In this case, the same provisions apply as set out in point 3
5. Recovered with vaccination
In this case, the same provisions apply as set out in point 1. It should be noted that a second vaccination may be necessary if the period of time described in more detail in the regulation has been exceeded. Caution! If you come from so-called virus variant areas then different regulations apply.
6. Unvaccinatedr
Regardless of whether you can present a negative PCR test on entry or not, a ten-day quarantine must be started. If you enter Austria “without PCR”, you have to have a PCR test carried out in Austria within 48 hours. The so-called Friday test is possible from the fifth day after entry. If the result is negative, the segregation is ended. Free testing is only allowed using PCR. Caution! If you come from so-called virus variant areas then different regulations apply.
Different regulations generally apply to commuters, pregnant women and school-age children.
