The Government of Montenegro has adopted new epidemiological measures that will be in force from September 25 to October 8. This was announced at yesterday's press conference by the Director of the Institute of Public Health, Igor Galić. Some of the measures, in force from today, stipulate that up to 50 people will be allowed to attend weddings and celebrations, provided they have COVID certificates, live music is allowed indoors, and from October 9 entry to supermarkets and hypermarkets will be allowed only with a vaccination certificate.
Here are the measures that apply from today:
- The national digital vaccination certificate is issued immediately after the second dose of the vaccine and is valid from that moment. There is no longer any need to wait 14 days after full vaccination.
