After the difficult year we just left behind, in which travel remained just a dream, now a new hope appears in the background and many countries have begun to open their borders to tourists vaccinated against Covid-19.
Possession of a "vaccination passport" would in fact allow countries to authorize travelers to enter without having to stay in quarantine and meet the requirements.
Romania lifts restrictions
From mid-January, visitors are allowed to enter the country without having to stay in quarantine if they can prove they have received the vaccine. If vaccination requires both doses, both should be taken at least 10 days before the trip to Romania.
Iceland, no restrictions starting May 1, 2021

All tourists who will present a certificate vaccination, should not be subject to quarantine measures.
Georgia, open from February 1, 2021
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that starting from February 1, 2021, all international tourists wishing to enter the country via air travel can do so provided they have received both doses of the Covid-19 vaccine and submit a proof certificate. Vaccinated tourists can visit Georgia without having to take a test or stay in quarantine.
Lebanon, not quarantine, yes PCR tests
Lebanon announced that tourists who will present a vaccination certificate should not quarantine. However vaccinated tourists must submit a Covid-19 negative test no more than 96 hours in advance to enter the country. However, at the airport, as a security measure, a second PCR test (at the expense of the airline) will be performed.

Poland, 10-day quarantine stop

Denmark, vaccination passport
Denmark has started work on a "vaccination passport" and announced that it will also distribute digital passports, with which citizens will not only travel, but can also have a dinner out in restaurants and attend events such as concerts and festivals.
Greece too, vaccination certificate
Greece is also working on an EU-level vaccination certificate that would facilitate travel and ensure safety at destinations. The Greek Prime Minister stressed that the vaccination certificate will not in any way restrict the way of traveling and assured that data protection is not in danger. Monitor.al
