Newest changes in Hungarian travel restrictions

The Hungarian government decree on travel restrictions during the epidemiological crisis is going to change from 21 September. From Monday, the obligatory quarantine will be reduced from 14 to 10 days.

According to Turizmus, the latest Hungarian government decree modifies some of the points in the existing decree about travel restrictions. According to the new decree, Hungarian citizens entering Hungary from foreign countries that have a high risk of infection, or any foreign citizens entering Hungary, still have to be quarantined, but if no infection is suspected,

the quarantine period is reduced from 14 days to 10 days, starting from 21 September.

The rules for exemption from the quarantine remain unchanged, meaning one would need two negative COVID-19 tests two days apart. Only those have to pay for the tests who want to be tested voluntarily or those who entered from foreign countries and want to end their quarantine earlier than 10 days.
