22 Jul Portugal: All set to welcome you!
Portugal has been the first European country to receive the “Safe Travels” stamp awarded by the World Travel & Tourism Council.
Portugal is open for business, and now’s the perfect time to get to know the country intimately, without many tourists.
Thanks to the control and increase of tests (Portugal is the 6th country in Europe in number of tests, having already completed more than 1.1 million, which accounts for more than 10% of the population) it was recently considered essential to apply some contingency rules to some areas on the outskirts of Lisbon.
Portugal adopted global health and hygiene standardised protocols to allow visitors to experience ‘Safe Travels’.
However, hotels, restaurants, supermarkets, health services, gas stations and sports equipment maintain normal opening hours. The same applies to all museums, cultural facilities, etc. There is also no limitation on the movement of residents or tourists and all transport is fully operational. There is no situation of closure or quarantine in Lisbon.
Portugal is the 3rd safest country in the world (Global Peace Index 2020) and the entire sector, from companies and private operators to the various public sector agents, is appropriately prepared so that the resumption of activity can generate maximum confidence in visitors and tourists, fulfilling all hygiene and safety conditions.
As your departure from your country it is necessary to show a negative test result for Covid19 with a 72 hours minimum validation. It´s not necessary to quarantine when entering Portugal.
