After Iceland, Greece, Cyprus and Georgia, Poland also announced today (Friday) that it will accept vaccinated Israeli tourists without the need for isolation.

Immunized tourists will be able to arrive in the country upon presentation of a negative result for corona tests from the 72 hours prior to arrival.

It is important to emphasize that Poland is a member of the European Union, and its decision is expected to pave the way for other countries in the EU to receive vaccinated tourists from Israel.

Those responsible for the approval are Israeli Foreign Ministry officials, who have been negotiating with the Poles recently.

In Poland, they were impressed by the pace of vaccines and their effectiveness in Israel, and the decision to allow Israelis to enter the country is valid from today.

It is important to note that Poland is currently in quarantine, until at least April 9th.

The state of morbidity in the country is worrying, and today about 35,000 verified people have been located there, a record number in the country.

The direct flights to Poland will also start next month and the one that is expected to return to Israel is the Polish airline LOT.

During closing days, the hotels, restaurants and bars in the country are also closed.
