The UK Government has announced a mandatory 14 day quarantine
for any individuals arriving into England. This new rule will go
into effect on Monday, June 8th, 2020. The Home Secretary confirmed
that the intention of the quarantine is to prevent the further
spread of COVID-19 from imported cases, which are now seen as a
more significant threat.
The current published rules apply to arrivals into England.
Please note that Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland will publish
their own separate regulations.
Upon arrival into England, each individual, regardless of
nationality or visa status, will be asked to complete a
"Passenger Locator Form" upon arrival. This form asks for
contact details and details of the traveller's intended onward
travel, including the address at which he or she will self-isolate.
If the individual cannot provide an address, then he or she will be
placed into accommodation chosen by the Government.
