From 18 March 2021; the exemption from border measures for vaccinated individuals is extended to non-Schengen countries. Iceland has announced that from 1 May it will use the ECDC risk assessment colour code at the border. From that time travellers from low-risk areas (green and yellow) will be exempt from quarantine measures if they present a negative PCR result at the border. Since 16 February; a negative PCR test is required prior to departure when travelling to Iceland. Additionally; a PCR test is mandatory at the border followed by a five-day quarantine and a second test. Vaccinated individuals and those with prior infection are exempt from the measures. Travel to Iceland from outside the EEA/Schengen area is still restricted. However; on March 26 a government regulation will come into effect that allows non-essential travels to Iceland from outside the EEA/Schengen-area for passengers who can provide valid proof of vaccination or prior infection; in addition to those on essential business. Between 1 and 30 April; border measures will also apply to children; who have previously been exempt from such measures.

Children will be tested and required to quarantine (some exceptions exist). Passengers who submit a vaccination certificate or a certificate of a prior infection will be required to undergo one test upon arrival to the country. The Minister of Health has decided to retain the current measures to contain the spread of infections at the borders until 1 July.
