Germany is one of the few countries that don’t require Singaporean travellers to serve quarantine on arrival. But before you book a trip, what do you need to know about getting around there? Even better, Singapore now offers Vaccinated Travel Lanes with Germany and Brunei for passengers who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Those returning to Singapore on designated VTL flights (by Singapore Airlines, Lufthansa and Royal Brunei Airlines) don’t need to serve a stay-home notice. But there are conditions, such as 4 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests to take. Here are some quick tips from #TalkingPoint presenter Steven Chia who travelled to Munich: 00:10 Do I need to quarantine or take a PCR test when I arrive in Germany? 00:26 Is there Oktoberfest in 2021? 00:32 Are tourist attractions, museums, shops and restaurants open in Munich? 00:39 What kind of masks should I pack? Can I use cloth masks? 00:53 Can I show my vaccination status on my TraceTogether app as proof of vaccination? How do I get an acceptable vaccination certificate? 01:24 Do I need to download local contact-tracing apps? 01:48 Where can I do a PCR test in Germany for my flight home? 02:17 How fast can I get results and what does it cost? 02:33 How many PCR tests do I need when I return to Singapore? Under the VTL, Germany recognises Pfizer-BioNTech/Comirnaty, Moderna or other World Health Organisation Emergency Use Listing vaccines. Sinovac isn’t recognised. As of Oct 4, 2021, 64.7% of German residents are fully vaccinated, and daily new cases numbered less than 5,000.
