Returning to the UK
From 18th March 2022, all entry restrictions when travelling to the UK were removed.

Travellers will also no longer need to quarantine when they arrive into the UK.
These rules apply to the whole of the UK.
Further detailed guidance on COVID-19 rules for all devolved nations can be found below:
There are different rules if you have been in a red list country or territory in the 10 days before you arrive in the UK. There are currently no countries or territories on the red list.
