Stockholm: Sweden has done away with the need to present a negative covid test result to enter the Scandinavian country, the government said Tuesday.
The latest announcement by the government will be in effect from Jan. 21, as per media reports.
The Public Health Agency of Sweden no longer considers travellers a major risk for the spread of omicron and recommended the removal of the testing requirement as it was no longer a proportional measure, as per media reports.
Most travellers would still need to present an e-certificate as proof of being completely inoculated, Forbes reported.
