ATHENS. To allow for last-minute bookings the guidelines for the Passenger Location Form (PLF) have been amended.

All travellers to Greece will be required to fill in the Passenger Locator Form (PLF) 24 hours – not 48 hours as was the case until now – prior to travel starting on July 9, the Greek Civil Aviation Authority (HCAA) announced on Monday.

As of Thursday and until 31 August 2020, all international incoming passengers will have to complete the PLF form 24 hours before check in.

Travellers will be guided through the online procedure which includes the provision of a QR passenger code that must be presented, either via mobile phone or in printed format upon arrival at Greek airports, ports and border check points.

According to the HCAA, testing for Covid-19 will be carried out based on guidelines from the Health Ministry, National Public Health Organization (EODY) and Civil Protection General Secretariat.

The change was made to allow for last-minute bookings.
