Austria, Denmark, Germany and Sweden have extended intra-Schengen border controls until at least November 11, 2022; France has extended its controls until October 31, 2022; and Estonia has temporarily introduced border controls to support entry and reception for travelers from Ukraine until May 21, 2022. Internal border controls are not allowed, in principle, within the Schengen Area, except for temporary national security measures, as recently confirmed by the European Court of Justice. Yet, border controls in some countries, which have not always been COVID-19 related, have been implemented and extended for years. The European Court of Justice has recently confirmed that extensions cannot exceed a six-month period unless a new security risk, different from the first, has been identified.
