Germany to relax COVID-19 travel restrictions although daily cases remain high


BERLIN, May 25 (Xinhua) -- Germany will relax its COVID-19 travel restrictions during the summer months, so that proof of vaccination, recovery or a negative test result (cumulatively known as the 3G rule) will no longer be required upon entering the country.

Germany has therefore joined the last countries in the European Union (EU) to ease their rules for travelers from the other EU member states or Schengen-associated countries. Most COVID-19 restrictions in Germany were dropped in April.
