All Borders are open (but…)
It was announced that all land borders that was closed since lock-down, will be opening from 1 August 2022. This does not mean that the participating neighbouring countries are quite ready to do the same. You can advise travelers that they are open but they should check with the specific border if they are fully operational (tel. numbers below) and also check what Covid-19 regulations still apply for the country they are travelling to, as most still require a negative PCR test, but testing facilities are not available at the small borders.
