Portugal

Australian passport holders can enter Portugal for ‘non-essential’ purposes if arriving from elsewhere in the EU or an approved third country (including the United Arab Emirates). Travellers aged 12 and over must have a recognised COVID-19 vaccination certificate or a negative COVID-19 (PCR) or (TRAg) test to enter. Within Portugal, most COVID-19 measures other than mask-wearing have been lifted. Community transmission of COVID-19 continues. Rules may change at short notice (see 'Travel'). Local authorities are strongly advising against non-essential travel to the Island of Sao Jorge, in the Azores, due to the recent increase in seismic activity (see ‘Safety‘).

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in Portugal due to the impacts of COVID-19.
