01:22 - Portugal removed from England's red list

Portugal, including Madeira and the Azores, is being removed from England's COVID travel red list.

This means returning British nationals can quarantine for 10 days at their own home rather than in a designated hotel at a cost of £1,750.

Mauritius is also being taken off the list, in a move that could open the way for tourists to go to those two countries after the government allows international travel again.

Portugal's Algarve region in particular is a popular hotspot destination for British holidaymakers, with about 1.2 million visitors annually in the years before COVID.

After 19 March 2021 at 4 AM, anyone coming from those two countries will be required to self-isolate for ten days on arrival to the UK at home and take COVID-19 tests at home.

The flight and maritime ban from Portugal including Madeira and the Azores are also being removed.

02:32 - Reduced Risk

Evidence that shows the risk of importing a variant of concern from these destinations has reduced.
Portugal has put steps in place to mitigate the risk from its links with countries where variants have become a concern, and now has genomic surveillance in place.

02:52 - More Countries Added to the list

Under current rules, anyone who is not a British or Irish citizen, or does not have residence rights including long-term visa holders will be refused entry into England.

To be added to the red list Ethiopia, Oman, Somalia and Qatar

The changes increased the number of countries on the red list to 35.

The ban does not affect cargo and freight without passengers.


04:22 - Travel within the UK


Travel within England is set to begin again on 12 April, when people will be able to stay overnight in self-contained accommodation that does not have any shared spaces.

People living in Wales will be able to stay in accommodation like a holiday cottage from 27 March, so long as they do not cross borders into any of the other nations.

But domestic breaks in Scotland will not return in time for the April bank holiday.
