Though a doctor and the director of a Covid testing company, I'm struggling to keep up with the frequent changes to travel regulations.....so I can understand the hundreds of enquiries we get daily, from people around the world, who don't know where to start!
So, as we start to dream of travel again, here are the latest regulations. Please bear in mind that it could be different tomorrow!
Leaving the UK
Of course, travel abroad is currently heavily restricted and governed by lockdown rules. You need a legitimate reason to leave your home, let alone leave the country.
But, there’s light at the end of the tunnel, and when you are permitted to travel, you’ll need to know the entry requirements of the country you are travelling to (check gov.uk foreign travel) and whether there are specific requirements of the airline etc. And then the hassle starts……
You'll almost certainly need a Covid test, usually within 3 days of travel....
