How does Sigma follow the development of recommendations?
Sigma and Engdahl&Berg have ongoing contact with the relevant parties about what restrictions we have to relate to and follow.
COVID-19
As of 01.06.2022 face mask requirement in indoor areas is lifted and our guidelines is updated accordingly. Travellers visiting Greece are also no longer required to fill out the Passenger Locator Form (PLF).
Additionally, as of Sunday 01.05.2022 and for as long as the epidemiological data allow so, all travellers arriving in Greece, regardless of their country of origin, are no longer required to display a valid certificate of vaccination or recovery from COVID-19, or evidence of a negative test result from SARS-CoV-2 infection (PCR or Rapid Antigen test).
However, the corona pandemic is still ongoing. Rules and restrictions may be changed at a short notice. Greek authorities may conduct random PCR or Antigen tests at arrival. Passengers that refuse to comply may risk not being allowed entrance to Greece. A positive test will result in a five (5) day quarantine.
We advise you to comply with the terms of the EU Digital COVID Certificate (i.e. EU Green Pass). The certificate is valid for 270 days following the administration of the last dose of the primary vaccination or indefinite after a third dose. In other words: make sure you get three doses of vaccine well ahead of time before Summit 2022. If you are not vaccinated you will cover any costs for PCR or Antigen tests by yourself.
