The decision is justified by the fact that the situation in the countries in question is unchanged and that the security situation is still considered to be serious.
If you are traveling to a country for which the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a recommendation, in most cases the insurance does not apply and the traveler cannot expect consular assistance from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the embassies.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has previously withdrawn from travel to Andorra, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Iceland, Italy, Croatia, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino , Switzerland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, the Vatican City State and Austria.
"This does not mean that the situation is as usual again.
Local regulations, restrictions and requirements for quarantine that affect Swedish travelers can be reintroduced with short notice if the situation changes. ”, The Ministry of Foreign Affairs writes in a press release.
