Announced at midnight on Monday into Tuesday (24 November), it will allow arrivals into the UK from countries not on the government’s quarantine-free travel corridor list to take a test after five days of self-isolation, which – if negative – will allow them to exit quarantine.
Tests will have to be sourced through private providers and will be at individual travellers’ expense. If arrivals opt not to take a test, they will have to serve a full two-week period of quarantine.
