UK Travel Rules: Quarantine-free travel to France resumes
Fully jabbed people can now visit France without quarantining on their return to the UK, following the latest update to the UK travel rules that came into force at 04:00 BST.
Despite the relaxation and a “surge” of bookings reported, travel agents are suggesting the quarantine for one of the UK’s most popular destinations came “too late to save the summer.”
Meanwhile, travellers in Mexico had to rush back to avoid hotel quarantine.
Under the latest changes to the UK’s traffic light system for travel, the rules have been relaxed for a dozen countries.
France has moved onto the amber list – which means children and those who are fully vaccinated do not have to quarantine when they return back to the UK, unvaccinated travellers have to self-isolate for 10 days when they return.
Traffic light system – latest update
- Moved from amber to green: Austria, Germany, Slovenia, Slovakia, Latvia, Romania and Norway
- Moved from amber-plus to amber: France
- Moved from red to amber: India, Bahrain, Qatar and the UAE
- Moved from amber to red: Georgia, Mexico, La Reunion and Mayotte
