Iceland's latest immigration policy which countries in Iceland are exempt from inspection?

Iceland is located in the North Atlantic, far from the British Isles. It is a place with unique geographical environment and landforms, where you can feel the most mysterious natural phenomena in nature. It is also a relatively developed area of hot spring tourism, attracting tourists from many countries and regions in the world. Here, I would like to share with you Iceland's specific entry policy.

On July 15, 2008, Icelandic epidemiologist Soloff announced at the press conference yesterday afternoon that passengers from Norway, Denmark, Finland and Germany will no longer accept border inspection or quarantine from Thursday, July 16.

Previously, Iceland exempted tourists from border inspection or quarantine in Greenland and Faroe Islands. In this way, Iceland will exempt tourists from six countries (regions), and Icelanders from these countries do not need to undergo screening or quarantine after arriving in Iceland.

Soloff also said that if tourists want to enter Iceland without quarantine and screening, they must stay in a low-risk country (one of the above six countries/regions) for at least two weeks and have no symptoms such as fever and cough. Otherwise, they need to accept border inspection or quarantine.

Iceland's latest immigration policy

According to the website of the Embassy of China in Iceland, the Icelandic government recently announced that all immigrants (including domestic citizens and foreign tourists) who arrived in Iceland from June 15 must choose between being tested by COVID-19 or being quarantined for two weeks. The first two weeks of the test are free. From July 1, each person must pay the inspection fee of 15000 kronor (about 1 14 USD). Children born in and after 2005 can be exempted from testing and isolation.

All personnel must register online (https://www.covid.is/) before entering the country, provide personal information, contact information, flight information and travel plans, and be tested at airports, ports and other places after entering the country.

There is no need to wait after the test, but necessary protective measures should be taken before the test results are known. Generally, the test results are notified by SMS within 24 hours, and those with positive test results need further examination. If necessary, it must be isolated free of charge in the isolation center.

The Embassy of China in Iceland reminds China citizens in Iceland to pay attention to the above practices in Iceland, strictly abide by relevant regulations, raise awareness of prevention and do a good job in self-protection. In view of the fact that the epidemic situation in Iceland has not been lifted, please go to crowded places as little as possible, pay attention to personal hygiene, wash your hands frequently, disinfect and ventilate.

If you have symptoms such as fever and cough, please call 1700 or 354-5444 1 13 for help. Don't go directly to the hospital. If you have any questions, you can call the embassy in Iceland 24 hours a day, and the staff of the embassy will provide necessary assistance.

If any citizen of China is diagnosed with COVID-19 infection or quarantined for observation during the ice, please inform the embassy as soon as possible so that the embassy can provide corresponding assistance in time.
