Free movement in the EU, re-open op travel

Free movement in the EU, re-open op travel
Regulatory

Introduction

Today, the European Commission has launched a website called 're-open EU', that contains essential information allowing a safe relaunch of free movement and tourism across Europe.  

The platform will provide real-time information on borders, available means of transport, travel restrictions, public health and safety measures such as on physical distancing or wearing of facemasks, as well as other practical information for travellers. The ‘Re-open EU’ platform is one of the measures announced by the Commission in its Tourism and Transport package of 13 May to help travelling and tourism resume safely in the EU while respecting the necessary health precautions. ‘Re-open EU’ will act as a key point of reference for anyone travelling in the EU as it centralises up-to-date information from the Commission and the Member States in one place.  It will allow people to browse country-specific information for each EU Member State through an interactive map, offering updates on applicable national measures as well as practical advice for visitors in the country. The platform is easily accessible on desktop and mobile by following the ‘Re-open EU’ link.
