France considers Vietnam a green zone; Germany has removed Vietnam from the list of high risk of infection.
On March 3, Germany removed 60 countries and territories from the list of areas with high risk of disease transmission, including Vietnam. This decision is based on how widespread the Omicron strain is.
Vietnamese visitors to Germany are exempted from home isolation for 10 days and do not need to make an online medical declaration. However, travelers 12 years of age or older must present a negative test result, or a certificate of Covid-19 recovery, and a certificate of two vaccinations.
