CABINET LATEST DUTCH CAN GO ON VACATION AGAIN THE HAGUE – The cabinet confirmed at the corona press conference on Tuesday evening what had already been leaked: from May 15, the global negative travel advice will expire, and the old system based on color codes will return. Minister De Jonge’s message was: The Dutch can go on holiday abroad again, but they have to do so ‘wisely

Which countries and areas will be the first to receive a positive yellow or green travel advice, was not yet said at the press conference. That will be announced no later than Saturday. Earlier it appeared that Finland, Portugal, the Balearic Islands (including Ibiza and Mallorca) and the North and South Aegean Islands in Greece are among the main contenders for a positive travel advice from 15 May.

Minister De Jonge emphasized during the press conference that the Dutch should thoroughly study travel advice and rules before going on holiday. For example, the Netherlands may give a country a yellow travel advice, but the country in question still has certain entry restrictions, such as a test or quarantine obligation.

De Jonge also said that it is not impossible that a country that is first set to yellow or green, will later go back to orange due to an increasing number of infections. Then the Dutch still have to be quarantined when they return. If a country or area has a green or yellow travel advice, there is no need to go into quarantine after return and no testing is required before the return journey.

For the time being, this quarantine is still an urgent advice, but the cabinet is working on a law to make it compulsory for travelers from certain (very) high-risk areas on pain of a fine of 435 euros. It is not yet certain when that law will be introduced. On Tuesday, the House of Representatives agreed, but the Senate must also agree before that.

De Jonge also indicated that hard work is being done on a European corona passport, the digital green travel pass. With this, travelers will soon be able to easily demonstrate that they have been vaccinated, tested negative or are immune from a recent infection. The Netherlands wants to have that corona passport ready for use before the summer holidays, i.e. at the end of June.

Very positive news for aviation and travel industry
The return of positive travel advice will allow tour operators to start carrying out package tours again. They do not do that as long as countries are on orange. In the coming days and weeks, a run on holidays and airline tickets is expected in the travel industry because the Dutch are going to book en masse again. This can lead to higher prices due to the limited supply.
