LATEST UPDATE - Declaration form for international travel

 

From 8 March 2021, those travelling outside of the UK from England must complete a travel declaration form prior to their departure to confirm that they are legally allowed to travel abroad from England. Find out more and access the form on the Gov.uk site.

 

From 15th February 2021 - All international arrivals to England, including UK nationals, must present a negative Covid-19 test taken up to 72 hours before departure and enter a 10 day quarantine. You are also required to take two Covid-19 tests on days 2 and 8 after your arrival in to England, which you need to book before you travel. Where you need to quarantine depends on where you have travelled in the 10 days prior to your arrival in England. Find out more.

  

In light of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, some countries require travellers to produce a negative COVID-19 test result on arrival, this includes France (must be a PCR test - not NHS), the Netherlands (must be a PCR test - not NHS, which needs to be printed and presented at check-in), and Ireland (must be a PCR test - not NHS).

 

Please ensure that you check the government advice page for the country you're travelling to for the latest entry requirements, as these are changing all the time:

 

France

The Netherlands

Ireland

 

For more information about current travel restrictions, please take a look at our FAQs. Please note, in line with government advice, it is now a requirement that all passengers wear a facial covering when travelling on public transport, including ferries.

 

You will need to complete a Passenger Health Locator form when travelling to the UK. To reduce your isolation time upon your return to the UK from countries not on the travel corridor list, you can take part in the government's Test to Release scheme.
