Switzerland has lifted all restrictions on citizens arriving from Bulgaria, while Norway introduced a mandatory ten-day quarantine for them.

Ukraine will allow Bulgarians on its territory after presenting of insurance and mandatory two-week self-isolation or a negative PCR test.

Bulgarians traveling to the Czech Republic via Romania will have to cross Bulgaria’s northern neighbor for a maximum of 12 hours. Otherwise, they would need to be tested or remain in quarantine in the Czech Republic.
