    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Need for daily Covid tests in Portugal?

    As @Friend from Barquinha said, the test must be taken WITHIN 48/72 hours of your flight's departure. If you take the test any earlier than that, it will not be valid. I recommend giving yourself a bit of leeway and not taking the test exactly 48/72 hours before the flight, because if the...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Need for daily Covid tests in Portugal?

    What kind of vaccination certificate do you have? If it's the EU digital certificate or the UK certificate then you're fine. If not, then technically you would need to show test results (from within 24, 48 or 72 hours depending on the type of test) to check into any accommodation in Portugal...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Mandatory travel form for Galicia

    I filled it out a week or so ago when I arrived in Galicia (though I am not here on Camino this time). It was easy and seemed like the smart thing to do.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Vaccine certificate needed for entry to bars and restaurants in Galicia?

    I do speak Galician, and in the end I think you are correct. The word "hostalaría" is as ambiguous as the English word "hospitality" in the Google translation. In both languages, I would normally expect that to include accommodation. But since it says hospitality services in bars, cafeterias and...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Vaccine certificate needed for entry to bars and restaurants in Galicia?

    Hmm, really? The description of the restrictions on the Galician public health system webiste says "ESTABLECEMENTOS DE HOSTALARÍA E RESTAURACIÓN". The word "hostalaría" generally refers to accommodation as well as food. The Portuguese press has certainly interpreted it to include hotels.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Vaccine certificate needed for entry to bars and restaurants in Galicia?

    The regulation is very new. It was first announced in the newspapers last Wednesday, 21 July. I'm not sure when it first came into force.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Vaccine certificate needed for entry to bars and restaurants in Galicia?

    The legislation in Portugal says that it does have to be an EU certificate, but I've just read the Galician legislation, and it's less specific. It just says "un certificado emitido polo servizo público de saúde" (a certificate issued by the public health service). It doesn't say which public...
