Portugal is the first country to provide the European COVID-19 Safety Seal

The "European Tourism COVID-19 Safety Seal," created by the European Committee for Standardization in partnership with the European Commission, similar to the Clean & Safe Seal, can only be displayed by companies and activities in the Tourism value chain that ensure compliance with the sanitary and safety measures identified by Health authorities to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

According to the Secretary of State for Tourism, Rita Marques, "this is another important step that reinforces Portugal's image abroad, placing us once again in the lead regarding the implementation of necessary procedures for the safe and responsible recovery of tourism activity in Portugal and Europe." "By combining the vaccination process with the strict adherence to rules, we will continue to create the conditions to welcome the best tourists," she added.
