What will the new travel rules be for double-jabbed passengers?
-
Fully vaccinated UK residents arriving in England from amber travel list destinations will no longer have to quarantine from 19 July
-
They still need to pay for tests before and after their return. The second one must be a PCR test, but they will not need a day 8 test
-
The rules apply to people 14 days after their final dose of the vaccine
-
Under-18s returning from amber list places will also be exempt from quarantine
-
The guidance that people should not travel to amber list countries will also be removed from 19 July
-
The next review of countries on the green, red and amber lists will be on 15 July – next Thursday
-
But “an amber list country could still turn red”, warned UK travel minister Grant Shapps, meaning hotel quarantine would become a requirement
-
Anyone arriving in England from a red list country must still go into government-managed hotel quarantine
