“Thus, we are taking a clear step towards a society without restrictive measures from the coronavirus crisis,” the government said on Friday.
Given declining infection rates and high vaccination rates, the government has decided to repeal these measures, allowing bars, restaurants, shops, theaters and even stadiums to accommodate the maximum number of visitors.
However, from Saturday, visitors over the age of 13 will be required to present a Covid-19 certificate in order to be admitted to restaurants, cultural and sporting events.
Those who have not been vaccinated or have been infected with Covid-19 can take free tests at local testing centers.
The rules in the country have provoked a mixed reaction.
Restaurant owners in several cities have stated that the certificates will not be checked, explaining the position with staff shortages and concerns about guest aggression and threats.
Anti -axers will hold protests in The Hague on Saturday.
About a third of the population believe that these rules unduly restrict their freedom, according to a survey commissioned by the authorities.
True, the other 30% support the rules.
Restrictions on schools and universities have been lifted. With the exception of public transport, toll requirements have been abolished elsewhere.
The nightclubs will still have to close at midnight.
