Travelling to Estonia

Starting form the 18.06.2022 COVID certificate is no longer required for travel to Estonia.

The government repealed the order requiring citizens of third countries to present a COVID certificate i.e. proof of vaccination against or recovery from coronavirus or of the negative result of a test taken before arriving in Estonia.

In the view of the Estonian Health Board, there is unlikely to be a significantly higher infection rate among citizens of third countries at present to the extent that it would have an impact on the epidemiological situation in Estonia.

The repealing of the order regulating the crossing of the national border means that the restrictions pertaining to citizens of third countries arriving in Estonia from outside of the European Union, the European Economic Area, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Andorra, Monaco, San Marino and the Vatican no longer apply.

The order will enter into force on the 18th of June. 

Visas for Russian citizens

From 19.09.2022 entry to Estonia is forbidden to all short-term Schengen visa holding Russian citizens whose aim is tourism, sports, culture, visiting friends or family regardless of their country of destination or visa issuing country. The same restriction are in force also in Latvia, Lithuania and Poland.
