New rules for entry into Bulgaria come into force as of 1 December. The requirement for a PCR test for arrivals from the “red zone” who have a green certificate shall be waived. A PCR test for arrivals from countries where the 14-day incidence rate is over 500 per 100,000 residents shall not be required.

Even without a green certificate, quarantine can be waived for arrivals from the “green” or “orange” zone provided they take a PCR or antigen test within 72 hours of arrival. If the result is negative quarantine shall be waived.
