As of 10th of August 2021 new restrictions have been put in place by the Government of Greenland for travelling to and within Greenland. Here is a summary:

It is now a requirement for passengers travelling to Greenland to be fully vaccinated.

In Greenland, persons are fully vaccinated when they have either received two shots of

Some passengers are excepted from this rule:

• Passengers who can document permanent residence in Greenland. They are still required to show SUMUT-receipt and negative PCR-test. Passengers who can document that they are moving to Greenland also fall into this category.
• Passengers between 2 and 17 years. They are still required to show SUMUT-receipt and negative PCR-test.
