Germany will end the travel ban it currently has in place for UK travellers.
From Tuesday (January 4) at midnight – or 11 pm in the UK, fully vaccinated tourists will be able to step foot across the border.
Those who are fully vaccinated will not need a negative Covid test or need to quarantine for 14 days.
Germany previously tightened restrictions on travel from the UK in an attempt to curb the spread of the Omicron variant. The rules and came into force on December 19 with few exceptions to the rule.
Only German citizens and residents, their partners and children, and transit passengers were allowed to travel to the country from the UK. Anyone entering Germany needed a negative PCR test and was required to quarantine for 14 days, regardless of vaccination status.
France imposed similar restrictions for UK travellers from December 18.
