Hello, has anybody travelled to Belgium just now in 2021? I start a new job and also aim to move to Ghent.
I live in Bristol uk and will travel with my german passport. I expect and so far understand from official online sources it needs a virus-negative test passed max. 72 hours before the travel and a belgique Traveller Location Form completed.
Does anybody know what travelling, as an EU national, from virus-red-zone UK  to Belgium does require?
Thanks for any info.

Hi,

you'll find all the information you need on the government's website about covid19 & travel:

( Do to my work i traveled across borders under Virus regulations and lost immense time and money due to non-defined information).
That is why i am asking here. The information on the Gov Website is diverse. It does not give a defined answer. If somebody travels with a virus-negative test 72 hours young or less, the Belgique passenger locater form, and all I.D. - is it enough? -

As far as I remember UK is no longer in "red" color / high risk country.
That was the case when the delta variant was only in UK, month ago.


Like you said, basically, you just need to fill the psf form, pcr / EU vaccination certificate & your european passport / id
Send an email/phone call to the belgian embassy just to make sure :cheers:

Thanks Alex (i wrote an email to the embassy already, no reply yet, might take time)
Yes will try and find out if Virus-Negativ test is enough. (I'm so done with the UK that i'd prefer to do quarantaine and/or vaccination in the EU/Belgium).
I'll find out.
