The country does not recognize PCR tests or illness for entry. After the covid in the last six months, however, it is enough to have 14 days after the first dose of vaccination. From Monday, children under 12 follow the parental regime, until tomorrow they pay until 18.
The exception is in transit within eight hours, the passage by car is limited to designated routes and can only be built for refueling.

Hungary

The vaccination is valid immediately after the first dose, it is also possible to prove it with a Czech card.

Arrival form is only recommended. Vaccination must be documented at least 22 days after the first dose, test or illness.
At the border, the EU asks for a covid passport, recognizing another form of confirmation only in exceptional cases. If a person does not meet the conditions, he still has the opportunity to be tested by PCR or antigen test at the border and to endure quarantine until the result. Here, too, an exception applies to children under 12 years of age.

Another country that a few weeks ago asked tourists from the Czech Republic nothing.
However, they must now document the completed vaccination, test (PCR not older than 72 hours, antigenic 48 hours) or past illness. If the tourist does not provide the relevant document, it will be quarantined for ten days at the place of accommodation.
