Covid update for the Netherlands


Netherlands Fine for not wearing a mask in Amsterdam and Rotterdam

From tomorrow, if you do not wear a mask in certain parts of Amsterdam, you risk a fine of 95 euros. Everyone aged 13 and over should wear one in five busy places in the city centre. On the Red Light District, the Nieuwendijk and in the Kalverstraat, visitors have to wear a mask day and night, both in shops and on the street. At the Albert Cuypmarkt and Plein '40-'45, the rule applies during market times.

According to the safety region, the wearing of a non-medical mask, both on the street and in shops, is necessary in places where it is busy and where other measures do not work sufficiently or lead to undesirable economic effects.

From tomorrow, a mask is also compulsory in Rotterdam in a number of places, including the Coolsingel, the Lijnbaan and the indoor shopping centres Alexandrium and Zuidplein.
