A new travel map is in force from Monday, 2 August. Lichtenstein will be moved to the green category, Iceland, Italy, and Switzerland to the orange category, Denmark and France to the red category, and Andorra to the dark red category.

Green

Travellers from these countries are required to fill in a Public Health Passenger Locator Form before entry and undergo an antigen or PCR test before or no later than 5 days after entry.

Orange

Currently, the orange group of countries is subject to the same entry restrictions as the green group.

Red

Those travelling from red countries must complete the electronic Public Health Passenger Locator Form and present either an antigen test taken no more than 48 hours before the start of the trip or a negative PCR test taken no more than 72 hours before entry to the Czech Republic. They are also required to undergo a test after arrival in the Czech Republic, no earlier than the 5th day and no later than the 14th day after arrival, and self-isolate while waiting for the result.

When travelling by private individual transport, passengers are not required to take a test before the start of the trip, but must submit a test no earlier than the 5th day and no later than the 14th day after arrival, and self-isolate while waiting for the result of the test.

Dark Red

All other EU member states and non-EU countries not mentioned above are considered high-risk areas and are subject to the same entry restrictions as red countries.

Extreme Risk

Travel to the Czech Republic from these countries is allowed only for Czech citizens and residents, foreigners with a long-term residence permit, and accredited members of diplomatic missions. They have to undergo a PCR test before arrival and another two once they are in the Czech Republic, the first within 24 hours and the second on the 10th day at the earliest. While waiting for the test results, self-isolation is obligatory.
