In early November, it became known that RUSSIA was restoring air traffic, suspended due to the pandemic, with nine more countries: the Bahamas, Iran, the Netherlands, Norway, Oman, Slovenia, Tunisia, Thailand and Sweden. At the same time, in many states, even for those vaccinated against CORONAVIRUS, there are restrictions. Despite the fact that the Russian Sputnik V vaccine is registered in almost 70 countries, the European Union has not yet approved its use, and some states of Central and Western Europe have put Russia on a red list that prohibits tourists from entering.
What coronavirus vaccines are used in the world
Regardless of the decision of the European regulator, the Sputnik V vaccine was nevertheless approved by Hungary and Slovakia. And from July 27, without PCR tests and quarantine, Russians vaccinated not only with Sputnik V, but also with other vaccines developed in Russia (EpiVacKorona, KoviVak) will be able to freely enter Hungary. Back in June, the Slovak authorities said that they planned to allow foreigners vaccinated with Sputnik V to enter, but so far no decision has been made.
Since November 13, India has included Russia in the list of countries with which there is an agreement on the mutual recognition of vaccination certificates. Travelers from these countries will not be required to quarantine upon arrival, but before arriving in India, all travelers must complete a HEALTH declaration on the Air Suvidha website, upload a negative PCR test result taken 72 hours before arrival, and a coronavirus vaccination certificate . Upon arrival, fully vaccinated travelers may leave the airport, but must self-monitor for signs of illness within two weeks.
From November 15, Israel was going to allow the entry of vaccinated Sputnik V, but due to technical and legal difficulties, tourists vaccinated with the Russian vaccine were decided to be allowed into the country from December 1.
