The Foreign Office has lifted its Covid-specific travel advice for the seven countries removed from the UK’s red list on Monday morning (1 November).

It means the FCDO is no longer advising against all but essential travel to Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Haiti, Panama, Peru and Venezuela on Covid grounds.

It brings the FCDO advice in line with the stance set out by the UK government last week, when it confirmed the seven remaining countries on the red list would be removed.

The red list and hotel quarantine will be retained, though, to be deployed in the event the government feels it needs to guard against the threat posed by new variants of Covid-19 from a specific country.
