Corona Virus

On the 14th of May, the government of Greenland presented a 3 phase plan for reopening Greenland, and on the 20th July Greenland entered fase 2. This means that citizens from countries classified as open by the Danish Police are allowed to enter Greenland, if they follow test and quarantine restrictions. You can find your country’s classification here.

All travellers entering Greenland must show a negative test no older than 5 days and fill out a Sumut form – a personal location form – in order to board the plane. The towns and settlements of Greenland are divided into categories “open” and “vulnerable”. You can travel to open areas without quarantining or re-testing. If you are to enter a vulnerable place you need to quarantine and re-test in a nearest town from the approved list, before entering.

You can find a detailed elaboration of testing and quarantine rules in the FAQ.

PHASE 2 begins on the 21th July and is valid through 31 January 2021.

There is no longer a limit on how many people may arrive in Greenland.

There will be a first come first served basis for tickets available at Air Greenland. If you would like to enter Greenland with your own private boat, ship or aircraft you must contact CORSEK@nanoq.gl for permission.
