I read [here](https://www.dw.com/en/covid-travel-restrictions-greece/a-60774508) that Greece requires proof of vaccination to enter most restaurants and shops… is that true? Or would a negative test result be ok? My family and I have a dream of visiting Greece one day, but one of my family members does not and will not get the shot, so we want to make sure she can enjoy the trip and come with us to restaurants and stuff when we all go.
Thanks for any help!

Right now, yes you do need a vax certificate (and a booster) to get inside restaurants and bars. However, tourist season is coming so this is probably going to stop in April. For sure you won’t need one during the summer and you will probably need one again from October on. They haven’t announced the exact date yet, but they’re thinking around April 15th you won’t need to be vaxed to get inside restaurants and bars. You will still need to wear a mask though. As for shops, you can already get in with a 24 h rapid or a 72h pcr
You need proof of vaccination to sit inside restaurants and cafes. You can enter stores or sit outdoors in restaurants with a negative test that must be taken less than 48 hours ago. They say they’ll lift these measures either by may 2nd or before orthodox Easter so if you want to travel on summer you’d be okay.
