The self-isolation threshold in Latvia is currently set at 50 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. This figure is lower among the EU and EEA countries only in the Vatican and Iceland. Currently, the highest incidence is in San Marino, where the figure is 1758.9 cases per 100,000 population.
Self-isolation in Latvia must still be observed when returning or traveling in transit through Hungary, where it is the second highest incidence in Europe. Self-isolation must also be observed when returning from Estonia, Monaco, Andorra, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Slovakia, France, Sweden, Malta, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Lithuania, Italy, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Cyprus, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Germany, Croatia, Liechtenstein, Denmark, Finland and Norway.
For non-EU and non-EEA countries, self-isolation is not required when traveling from Rwanda, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, New Zealand and Australia. These countries are among those allowed to cross the EU’s external border.
When entering Latvia from other countries of the world not mentioned in the lists, self-isolation must be observed.
SPKC still does not recommend going abroad, because visiting other countries is considered to be a factor of increased risk – in some countries there is not only an increase in morbidity, but also other types of the virus that are not yet registered in Latvia.
On the other hand, if it is necessary to go abroad, then when returning for ten days, strict self-isolation measures must be observed and health must be monitored. If symptoms occur, a Covid-19 test should be performed and your GP should be consulted to decide what to do next.
