Iceland has lifted all Covid-19-related restrictions. There are now “no disease prevention measures at the borders for passengers travelling to Iceland,” regardless of whether individuals are vaccinated or unvaccinated, authorities said.

Additionally, travellers no longer have to provide proof of vaccination or prior infection and there are no restrictions on social gatherings or quarantine requirements for those infected by Covid-19.

Authorities in Iceland said 81 per cent of the eligible population is now fully vaccinated, with vaccinations for five-to-11-year-olds currently being administered. Sigríður Dögg Guðmundsdóttir, head of Visit Iceland, said: “We have announced that there are now no restrictions at the borders or within the country. Icelandic authorities have taken a measured approach to Covid-19 throughout the pandemic under the advisement of medical experts and scientists. I feel confident that our revised protocols are a reasoned step in the right direction. We look forward to welcome visitors and share all the wonders that Iceland has to offer.”
