Until now, self-isolation has only been recommended for citizens returning to Lithuania from countries affected by the coronavirus. The entry of foreigners from these countries is also prohibited, except for separate permits from the Government of Lithuania or other authorized institutions.

“Previously, returnees from affected countries were only recommended to isolate themselves, and as of today, June 29, they must be isolated for 14 days. Isolation was not mandatory, only the recommendation was valid, but data on arrivals were collected of the affected states. The procedure has been adjusted due to the deterioration of epidemiological indicators in certain foreign countries, “the ministry said.

According to the SAM, the list of countries most affected by the coronavirus is updated weekly based on the previous indicators. The most affected countries are those in which the 14-day morbidity rate exceeds 25 cases per 100,000. population. At that time, if the number of COVID-19 cases in a foreign country in the last two weeks is 100,000. the population is 15 to 25 cases, foreigners from that country can come to Lithuania, but it is recommended to isolate them.

Currently, foreigners from 29 countries can come to Lithuania, and as of Monday, people from the UK can do the same.

The ministry notes that, for example, Sweden, where the indicator exceeds the established maximum of 25 cases, is subject to stricter regulations and foreigners are not admitted, and returning Lithuanians must isolate themselves as of Monday. From the United Kingdom, where the incidence exceeds 15 but less than 25 cases per 100,000. residents, foreigners can already come, only for them, as well as returning Lithuanian citizens, it is recommended to isolate.
