COVID-19 Travel Policies

Please check country-specific requirements for entry to Austria.  You may also have specific requirements for travel out of your country.  

The so-called 3-G rule is in effect for visitors from all countries. In order to travel to Austria without quarantine requirements, you must provide either:

  • a valid proof of vaccination or

  • a negative Covid-test or

  • proof of recovery

Travelers without any of the 3-G options above are allowed to enter Austria but are required to register upon entry (pre-travel clearance) and quarantine for 10 days. 

Important!Due to these travel quarantine restrictions, travel is not advised for those who do not qualify

under the 3-G rule and the GHL Program is unable to sponsor travel/attendance to the

summit for those travelers - further, we will only sponsor summit participants who have 

been fully vaccinated with an approved COVID-19 vaccine.

 

The GHL will cover your 10-day isolation costs should you contract Covid during/to the meetings in Vienna.  Once again, we will only sponsor participants that have been fully vaccinated with an approved COVID-19 vaccine.
