From 15 December, arrivals into England by plane, ferry or train from countries not featured on the government’s travel corridor list will have the option to take a test after five days of self-isolation, with a negative result releasing them from the need to isolate.
Passengers are advised to book their test before they travel from a private provider on a gov.uk suppliers list, which will be published before 15 December.
Using an NHS Test and Trace test will not legally permit anyone to be released from self-isolation.
