• Quarantine for 5 days upon arrival for those without vaccine - no quarantine for those who are vaccinated. 
• Re-testing on the 5th day after arrival. If you are unable to provide a second negative test result, you should self-quarantine for 14 days 
• Keeping a distance and completely avoid social events until it is ruled out that you are infected with COVID-19
• Use of medical face mask from Denmark throughout the entire journey until you reach your final destination in Greenland

The authorities' guidelines are updated regularly. We encourage you to stay up to date with the latest information and recommendations.
