In the future, non-vaccinated residents will also have to observe 10 days of self-isolation when arriving from Liechtenstein, Bulgaria and Croatia.
Non-vaccinated residents will not have to observe self-isolation when arriving in Latvia from Germany, the Czech Republic, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Poland and the Vatican.
SPKC data show that the 14-day cumulative rate of Covid-19 morbidity per 100,000 population in Latvia is currently 64.1, but a week ago it was 49.3.
The EU-EEA average fell to 205.1 over the week. A week earlier it was 209.2.
In Estonia, the indicator has increased and reached 254.6 last week (203.1 a week earlier). Lithuania’s indicator has risen to 254.5 (202.5 a week ago).
When entering Latvia from a country where the 14-day cumulative number of Covid-19 cases per 100,000 population exceeds 75, it is mandatory to observe 10-day self-isolation. The self-isolation time may be reduced if the test is repeated on the seventh day and is negative. The test result must be recorded in the test certificate. Self-isolation may be waived by persons with an interoperable vaccination or disease certificate.
Children under the age of 12 (until 1 September 2021 – also other minors) traveling with adults who are exempt from the requirement of self-isolation may disregard self-isolation. However, in such cases, children do not make close contacts with persons outside their household for 10 days after leaving the high-risk country, do not attend public events, children’s groups, do not use public transport.
