Travel conditions have changed since the start of the pandemic. While it cannot be traveled without legal permission in most countries in the very first beginning of the pandemic, now there are some significant regulations for travelers to travel freely. Vaccination obligation, COVID test upon arrival, and quarantine are some of the critical ones of them. While some countries request all three of them, some others demand only vaccination or only testing. 

After vaccination globally, some countries eased the travel conditions. While it is required to be vaccinated for participation in various activities such as entertainment within the country, many countries have also introduced a vaccination obligation for travel. Of course, because of all these differences across country regulations and the change of the pandemic in global conditions create questions in the mind of travelers: What happened to the PCR test for travel? Should vaccinated people still have COVID tests before traveling? Although it is hard to come up with a clear answer, we can try to make an assessment by examining the regulations of the countries. 

According to the latest research, 75 percent of the world's countries accept the covid test at the entrance to the country. In addition to the vaccination requirement, there are also countries that require testing on arrival. The data shows us that the primary demand of countries for travel is still covid testing. Undoubtedly, there are countries that do not accept travelers who have not been vaccinated. But since it has been proven that vaccination does not completely prevent the transmission of the corona virus, most other countries are requesting tests from travelers even if they are vaccinated.
