Face masks:
Face masks are no longer mandatory in the Netherlands. Feel free to wear a face mask if you feel more comfortable.

 

Self-test:
A Covid-19 test is not mandatory to enter the country, but to keep the conference Covid-free we strongly recommend that to do a self-test before joining the conference, or a PCR test if you are unvaccinated or have symptoms.

 

Positive test during the conference:
If you are tested positive on COVID-19 during the conference, please send an email immediately to conference@uva.nl.

 

Tests for travelling back home (PCR test)
For participants that need to take a PCR test before returning to their home country, and supply an international travel certificate, many commercial Covid testing centers are located in the city centre of Amsterdam, some at a walking distance from the conference venue. Valid certificates are issued within 24 hours.
