Due to the recently announced changes to Covid rules and the by now very repetitive questions, we’re pinning a megathread. **Covid-related content will be collected here. New posts will be removed.**

New articles, useful websites, and exemplary answers to people’s questions will be collected in this post; feel free to suggest content in the comments that you think should be added.

**[DW: German leaders approve new COVID curbs for unvaccinated](https://www.dw.com/en/german-leaders-approve-new-covid-curbs-for-unvaccinated/a-59994235)** – 2021-12-02

[**Entry information and registration.** Read this if you want to enter the country, as you may need to register.](https://einreiseanmeldung.de/#/)

[Federal Foreign Office: **COVID-19: entry and quarantine regulations in Germany**](https://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/en/visa-service/EinreiseUndAufenthalt) – updated according to the current regulations

[**Covid Dashboard** (similar to the official RKI one, but faster)](https://covid-karte.de/#-)

**[Vaccination information for the federal state of Berlin](https://www.berlin.de/corona/en/vaccination/)**

[**How to have a foreign vaccination recognised for the EU digital certificate**](https://www.army.mil/article/247734/optional_how_to_get_the_eu_covid_vax_digital_certificate_in_germany) – this is targeted at US soldiers, but the general process should be the same. Where it refers to the CDC card, that would be your foreign certificate. Doing this with anything except a German- and maybe English- language certificate won’t be realistic. Also, the vaccine will need to be [recognised](https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/human-regulatory/overview/public-health-threats/coronavirus-disease-covid-19/treatments-vaccines/vaccines-covid-19/covid-19-vaccines-authorised#authorised-covid-19-vaccines-section).

While you’re free to have discussions in the comments, **trolling, misinformation, conspiracy theories, disrespect towards the victims of the Nazis will be dealt with**. So will promoting your services as the Mahdi or Messiah (don’t ask). If you see such things: **Report, don’t engage.**

  1. >promoting your services as the Mahdi or Messiah *(don’t ask)*.

    OK, that’s just cruel teasing right there…

  2. Thank you for finally making a mega thread on Covid! I would suggest also creating a small section on traveling here, maybe with a link to einreiseanmeldung.de where people can see what current restrictions/requirements are in place for traveling to Germany.

    Edit: D’oh— I see you already have something linked, sorry about that!

  3. So… How serious is the talk about the vaccine mandate? I wasn’t really for it about 8 months ago but…

    What is wrong with the German speaking part of Europe? It has the lowest vaccination rates…

  4. What about the recent comments from the head of STIKO?

    This is a total disaster… By him running around expressing his “private” opinion he basically makes STIKO irrelevant…

  5. What about people who have been vaccinated abroad and need to get a digital certificate? How do they go about it? As I understand it, they need to take proof of vaccination and ID to a pharmacy, but it’s nearly impossible to find any clear guidance about this online.
