Hmmmm. Interesting!

It might be time to resurrect plans for a trip - perhaps October?

The Netherlands rules to enter are still restrictive for those that did not get that shot. Restrictive = not possible to visit.

Some people in some countries can get what is known as an EU Digital Covid Certificate, but that EU Digital Covid Certificate is not available in the US.

Sigh - maybe all of these restrictions will continue to dissipate as 2022 progresses.

well me and a load of other travellers from UK USA Denmark all entered Netherlands before 20th April and there is no more than a passport needed (must have 6 months left to enter EU) no docs covid passports or even any questions other than am I here for work or holiday. The only difference (not covid related)was I got my passport stamped in and out.
I had the opportunity to walk out without getting my passport stamped after using auto gate. But remembered the exit stamp was important if I didn't want any problems coming back into EU.
I took the docs all 3 and they are still sealed in my bag.
Any of the 2022 420 crew had any different entry experience ?? Please post.
best wishes all

I was asked how many vaccines I'd had but wasn't asked to prove it.

Did you say zero b/c that shot doesn't provide a vaccination against anything?

Sorry, not trying to be antagonistic. I just don't understand how anyone calls that shot a vaccine, and my fingers just type my thoughts from time to time.

We are itching to return. CC, if you are reading this, my wife is pushing for a trip to Denmark b/c you guys in the Scandinavian countries seemed to have kept your cool over COVID, and it appears we could visit there easier. But when I read the restrictions listed by the Dutch government, I just cannot justify dropping funds for flying there from Texas only to be turned back b/c we do not comply.

Interesting to hear that a few of you didn't really get any questions.

High All can the 2022 420 US contingent post confirming or not that no docs required to enter Netherlands?.
thanks

You tell them what they want to hear if you want to get through quickly and easily. "3" and you're on your way.

Sorry it took me so long to answer. I did have to show my Covid vaccination card when I got on my Delta flight from Phoenix to Detroit. But NOT from Detroit to Amsterdam.
