Quarantine-free travel to resume for fully vaccinated passengers

09 July 2021/Categories: CILT, Industry News, Aviation, Coronavirus


Arrivals who have been fully vaccinated with an NHS administered vaccine in the UK, or are on a formally approved UK vaccine clinical trial, returning to England from amber list counties will no longer need to quarantine from 19 July. 

 

Passengers will need to provide proof of their vaccination status to carriers in advance of travel. 

 

Arrivals will still be required to complete a pre-departure test before arrival into England, alongside a PCR test on or before day two after arrival.

 

The recommendation for people to not travel to amber countries will also be removed from 19 July. 

 

Transport Secretary, Grant Shapps said: “Thanks to our successful vaccine rollout, we’re now able to widen quarantine-free travel to NHS administered fully vaccinated adults and children under the age of 18, and take another step towards fully reopening international travel. 

 

“As we continue with the domestic unlocking, it’s only right we get people travelling again - whether that’s for business to help create jobs, overdue holidays or reconnecting family and friends. However, protecting public health still remains our priority and we will act swiftly if action is needed.” 

 

 At this stage, there will be no changes to requirements for those returning from green or red list countries – even when they are fully vaccinated, nor for unvaccinated passengers travelling from amber countries who do not have a valid exemption.
