Hungary has opened its Schengen borders, allowing restriction free travel to anyone entering the country from Croatia, Austria, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, or Slovenia. The announcement only affects the crossing of the physical borders themselves, restrictions for people travelling by airplane remain the same, Hungary Today.

According to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Péter Szijjártó, national borders within the Schengen Area should reopen if the management of the pandemic continues improving in the current direction.

Only travellers coming from Ukraine are subject to entry restrictions when attempting to travel to Hungary, among all other neighbours of this country.

The minister also noted that opening up Hungary’s borders for air travelling is a more complicated process since many transfer flights occur in Budapest. If a passenger travels into the EU from outside the Schengen Area and has a transfer in Budapest, other rules will apply for them compared to the people with direct flights into Budapest. So far, Hungary has signed at least 17 bilateral agreements with other nations, both in and outside of the European Union, agreeing to recognise immunity certificates and remove travel restrictions for citizens, regardless of the vaccine’s they received, Schengen Visa Info wrote.

The Hungarian government has even made an offer to all seven of its neighbors that those living along their mutual borders can start getting vaccinated in Hungary starting in July, regardless of whether they are Hungarian or non-Hungarian citizens. Those crossing the border for vaccination must be 18 or older, and they cannot pick which type they want, they must accept what is offered, according to Hungary Today.
