As per the new guidelines, fully vaccinated travellers can now visit the UK without any RT-PCR report or quarantine requirements.

Note: Eligible fully vaccinated travellers are only required to fill out a simplified passenger locator form, confirming their vaccination status, travel history and contact details.

Travellers who are not fully vaccinated will only need to take a pre-departure test in the 2 days before departure for the UK and a PCR test on or before the end of day 2 after they arrive in the UK. Passenger locator form needs to be filled in either case. However, such passengers will not need to self-isolate on arrival and will only undergo quarantine if they test positive.

Children aged 12 to 15 in England can demonstrate their vaccination status or proof of prior infection via a digital NHS COVID pass for international travel. This makes it convenient to travel to countries that require proof of vaccination/prior infection in order to get access to public places.
