Iceland expects to start easing restrictions for visitors arriving from overseas no later than June 15, the government said on Tuesday.


Under a plan still being developed by the authorities, travelers would be given a choice between a test for Covid-19 upon arrival in Iceland or a two-week quarantine, Reuters reported.


“Iceland’s strategy of large-scale testing, tracing and isolating have proven effective so far,” Tourism Minister Thordis Kolbrun Reykfjord Gylfadottir said in a statement.


Iceland has reported three new Covid-19 infections in May.
