Fully vaccinated passengers and most under 18s arriving from non red-list countries can now use a lateral flow test on or before day two of their arrival in England.
The move, which was confirmed by health secretary Sajid Javid on 15 October, came into effect on Sunday (24 October), before the half-term holidays.
Javid said the switch was possible due to the "incredible" progress of the UK’s vaccination programme.
Travellers must send a picture of their lateral flow test as a minimum requirement to verify the result.
