The ban on retail sales was lifted. In the stores, the hygiene rules which are described below apply.

Opening hours

Stores and their dispensing windows do not have limited opening hours. The stores can also be open on Sundays and public holidays (except for large public holidays, where the closing of shops is required by law).

Hygiene rules

Special hygiene rules and restrictions no longer apply in stores. However, continue to observe regular hand hygiene and, if possible, maintain the recommended 1.5 m spacing.

The obligation to wear nose and mouth protection no longer applies. Find out more here: masks inside.
