After 22 August, transit travellers will no longer enjoy PCT and quarantine exemption
The use of protective masks at public cultural events in the Republic of Slovenia (except for performers) is again required from 16 August. A new government decree maintains the current restrictions in the provision of cultural services and reintroduces the face mask-mandate.
The decree will be valid until 22 August inclusive, according to a government statement. It is to be understood that any extension of the measures will be regulated by a subsequent ordinance.
The new decree also stipulates that public cultural events may be held only if the performers and staff members who are in direct contact with the audience meet the PCT condition (vaccinated, recovered, tested).
At the same session on 14 August, the Slovenian government adopted another decree which also came into force yesterday. It maintains the current restrictions on the collective exercise of religious freedoms and sets a new condition for providers of religious or spiritual education and training. Now, these services can only take place if the person performing them meets the PCT condition.
A third government decree, effective from 16 until 22 August, amends the rules for entering the country, current rotating president of the Council of the European Union. Now, a person who fulfils the PCT condition may enter Slovenia without being sent to a 10-day home quarantine.
Five exemptions are provided for entry without self-isolation and PCT evidence:
