With effect from 19 September 2021, the Federal Republic of Germany no longer lists India as a country with a significantly elevated risk of infection (high-risk area).

If you have not travelled to another country that is considered a high-risk area or virus variant area in the 10 days prior to your planned entry to Germany, you are exempt from digital entry registration as well as quarantine in Germany.

Regardless of this change, the following restrictions continue to apply for travel to Germany from India:

Residents of non-EU countries are only permitted to enter Germany if they serve in an important role or if they have an urgent need to travel (please see What constitutes an urgent need for travel?) or if they are fully vaccinated (please see What rules apply for fully vaccinated people?).

If you were vaccinated in India with Covishield, please note that your vaccination certificate must contain your passport number or date of birth. Reference to Aadhar number is not sufficient.

For further details, please see “Entry and travel restrictions”.
