- Estonia, Latvia, Slovakia, Slovenia and St Vincent and the
Grenadines added to the list of travel corridors with effect from
Tuesday 28 July in England
- passengers urged to consult the FCO’s travel advice
pages on GOV.UK and check
insurance policies before travelling
- destinations exempt from border measures continue to remain
under constant review to keep the risk of infections from abroad
low
The government has today (24 July 2020) added Estonia, Latvia,
Slovakia, Slovenia and St Vincent and the Grenadines to the list
of travel corridors, after reviewing the latest risk assessments.
The 5 new countries have been added to the current list of
destinations from which passengers do not need to self-isolate
when arriving to England.
The changes, which will take effect in England from Tuesday 28
July 2020, come as the government urges passengers to continue to
protect themselves when considering travelling abroad by making
sure they are up to date on the latest information - both at home
and at their destination.
The easiest and simplest way to do this is to consult the
FCO’s travel
adviceand check insurance policies before
any overseas travel.
All travellers, including those from exempt destinations, will
still be required to complete a passenger locator form
on arrival into the UK.
Government will update GOV.UK
with any changes on a weekly basis (should any be required) to
reflect the shifting international health picture. We are
prepared to respond rapidly if the health situation of a country
deteriorates.
The border health measures remain subject to review every 28 days
in England.
See the current list of exempt
destinations.
