Germany plans to lift all border controls on June 15, according to many German reports.

According to Reuters “the German Interior Ministry intends to completely abolish border controls on June 15”.

Austrian Tourism and Agriculture Minister Elizabeth Kestinger also stated that Austria has agreed with Germany to allow free movement on their borders again from June 15, which had been closed since mid-March due to the coronation pandemic.

“From June 15, it will be possible to open the border between Germany and Austria,” she told state radio station O1.
