POLAND and Sweden are the latest countries to scrap all their Covid restrictions, in a boost to Brits heading abroad for the Easter holidays.

There are now no Covid entry requirements for any tourists visiting either country, regardless of their vaccination status.

Brits no longer need to show any proof of vaccination or a negative Covid test, or quarantine on arrival.

On Poland, the Foreign Office website states: “The obligation to undergo quarantine on arrival in Poland has been lifted. There is also no longer a requirement to demonstrate your vaccination status on arrival.

“A pre-departure test is no longer required for travellers arriving from non-Schengen countries, which includes the UK.”

On Sweden, the Foreign Office website states: “As of April 1, 2022, people travelling to Sweden from the UK or other countries outside the EU/EEA will no longer be required to present a negative Covid test or proof of vaccination.”

Poland and Sweden follow in the footsteps of a growing number of countries which have ditched all their Covid restrictions entirely.

As of today, Grenada no longer requires any proof of vaccination or of a negative Covid test to enter, and unvaccinated Brits no longer need to quarantine on arrival.

The Caribbean destination has also scrapped mandatory face masks.

Denmark dropped all Covid entry requirements last month, as did Gibraltar.

Other popular holiday destinations are relaxing their Covid rules ahead of the Easter holidays.

France has moved the UK to its green list and scrapped the requirement for unvaccinated travellers to need an essential reason to enter the country.

Spain has ditched Covid testing and quarantine rules for anyone who has mild symptoms of the virus or those who are asymptomatic.

However, Spain has extended its Covid entry requirements until the end of this month, which could impact some Brits who had Easter holiday plans.

Until April 30, only vaccinated Brits or those who can show proof of recovery from Covid can enter Spain.

That means unvaccinated people who cannot show that they had Covid within the last six months are still not permitted to enter.
