A number of questions have arisen regarding how foreign tourists’ immunity certificates will be recognized in Hungary in the least confusing way possible. According to Minister of the Prime Minister’s Office Gergely Gulyás, the bilateral agreements Hungary concluded with specific countries will solve the issue.
Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó has announced the completion of bilateral travel agreements between Hungary and countries such as Mongolia, Georgia, Romania, Czechia, Bahrein, Croatia, Turkey, Slovenia, and Montenegro. While this is a step closer to tourism, it does not necessarily mean that Hungarians with immunity certificates can travel to any of these countries.
Travel opportunities for vaccinated Hungarians are appearing increasingly complicated, not only because of the system developed around Hungary’s immunity certificates, but because of other countries’ conditions for entry. In the government’s most recent press conference, Minister of the Prime Minister’s Office Gergely Gulyás addressed many of these concerns.
Austria has announced that it is allowing quarantine-free travel to a number of countries, among them Hungary, where there are no longer a high number of people infected with the coronavirus. However, it is allegedly only accepting immunized individuals who were vaccinated with vaccines approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) or the World Health Organization (WHO).
