As of 19 February 2022, restrictions due to Covid-19 no longer apply when entering Slovenia. This means that the RVT (recovered/vaccinated/tested) condition no longer has to be met at the border and travellers will no longer be ordered to quarantine at home. Because the risk of infection with COVID-19 is still present, it is recommended to avoid possible occasions of transmission.
