All COVID-19 travel restrictions removed in the UK
Posted on 16 March 2022 by Summer School Director
The government will remove the remaining COVID-19 international travel restrictions for all passengers from 04:00am Friday 18 March 2022.
This means:
- from 04:00am on the 18 March, no-one entering the UK will need to take tests or complete a passenger locator form.
- no quarantine period is required.
- remaining managed hotel quarantine capacity will be stood down from the end of March, making the UK one of the first major economies to end all COVID-19 international travel rules
In part, this is possible because of the success of the UK's vaccine and booster rollout, with 86% of the population having received a second dose and 67% of the population with a booster or third dose.
