Quarantine requirementsTravelers are subject to a 10-day mandatory self-isolation (regardless of the result of the test). There is a possibility of shortening the self-isolation time by taking a COVID-19 test, at personal expense, on the 7th day of the self-isolation at the earliest, with a negative result thereof, they must submit the results to the NVSC and await their permission to leave isolation before the end of the 10 day period. However, regardless of the shortened self-isolation time, it will be required for 14 days of arrival to restrict the number of contacts, and in the case of those working, it will be required to commute only between work and home and wear a face mask and keep safe distance and follow other general instructions for the prevention of the coronavirus in their interactions with others. Milder self-isolation requirements will apply as of March 1 for arrivals from Spain and Portugal, while arrivals from the US will fall subject to tighter requirements.
