The European Council is poised to sign off new travel rules designed to bring harmony to the current patchwork array of regulations, although it will be up to individual member states to decide whether to adopt them.
The Telegraph reports the proposals, which are due to be approved by the council on Tuesday (22 February), will allow fully vaccinated travellers to enter the bloc without proof of having tested negative for Covid-19.
Visitors from all non-EU countries, including the UK, will be covered. Children aged six to 18 who have not been fully vaccinated will be allowed to enter on the basis of a negative pre-departure PCR test.
