Given the rise of the number of people infected with Covid 19 in Bulgaria, Denmark has included this country in the category of “risk countries”. In order to enter Denmark, travelers from Bulgaria will need to present respectable reasons.

Austria introduces measures for those arriving from 16 districts of Bulgaria, while previously measures used to be for those arriving from the country as a whole. These are the districts of Blagoevgrad, Burgas, Dobrich, Gabrovo, Yambol, Kardzhali, Montana, Plovdiv, Razgrad, Shumen, Sliven, Smolyan, Sofia, Stara Zagora, Targovishte and Varna. Those arriving from these areas must present a negative PCR test not older than 72 hours or remain under a 10-day quarantine. The quarantine can be interrupted with a negative PCR test on the spot within 48 hours, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced.
