National warning: This advisory covers the whole country.

Brief summary:
De fleste danskere har ingen problemer under besøg i Nederlandene. Brug din sunde fornuft og vær opmærksom på mistænkelig adfærd, som du ville være det, hvis du var i Danmark. Rejser i en tid med COVID-19 Udenrigsministeriet farver rejsevejledningerne efter om det er sikkert at rejse ift. konflikt, uro, kriminalitet, terror mv., og ikke efter COVID-19 smittesituationen. Du skal være opmærksom på, at der er risiko for smitte med COVID-19 i hele verden. Du bør læse om indrejseregler, karantæne- og testkrav hos den danske ambassade i Haag under 'rejserestriktioner'. Undersøg om din rejseforsikring dækker COVID-19 relaterede udgifter inden du rejser. Som ikke-vaccineret kan du læse mere om, hvordan du skal forholde dig ift. test og isolation, når du kommer hjem fra en udlandsrejse på coronasmitte.dk. Bemærk at ikke-vaccinerede børn til og med 17 år, som rejser med deres færdigvaccinerede eller tidligere smittede forældre, er undtaget de danske indrejserestriktioner.

Danger level: 2

Note of the displayed travel advisories

These travel advisories are automatically gathered. We use the RSS Feeds of the corresponding authorities of the single countries. In some cases, we analyse the website itself. Since the information originates from different countries and different countries have different understanding of danger and danger levels. Thus, the information displayed is an automized and normalized representation with no right to completeness and correctness. If a country is not shown, it doesn't necessarily mean it's safe. The information shown is a first indicator. Additional remark: the websites address does not endorse the situation of a 'Reisewarnung' (with its name). Often, it's just formal notifications by other countries. These can be the reason a country reaches scores of aorund 2.0 and still be a generally safe country to visit. Lower risk grades are usually no sign of a immanent threat!
