Do children need a COVID test to enter Germany? - Clever ethnic girl having conversation with teacher online

I am going from India to Germany (Frankfurt) next week (December 9th 2020) with my 4 months old baby. From Frankfurt airport we will travel to Karlsruhe.

We have a valid German visa. I know that I will need to get a COVID test within 48 hours from my flight to Germany, but what about my child?



Best Answer

According to Germany's FAQ on COVID testing, there aren't any exceptions for children. So your child will need to get a COVID test too, although note that you may also undergo the test after arriving to Germany in case babies are not eligible for testing in India.
