Mass vaccination against coronavirus is underway in the UK, raising hopes British holidaymakers will be able to travel this year without the need for quarantine. In fact, the Cypriot government has already outlined plans to allow inoculated Brits and those who test negative for Covid into the country from May without restrictions.
Turkey will also welcome Brits without proof of vaccination this summer but negative PCR tests will be required.
Additionally, the EU has announced plans to introduce a Digital Green Certificate, which will not require a person to be vaccinated. To use this system, you either need to be vaccinated, show you’ve tested negative, or show you’ve previously recovered from Covid-19 to freely travel throughout the EU. However, it is not clear whether this will be available to third country nationals outside the EU – such as Brits.
The government says it hopes some holidays can go ahead from 17 May, but not before. After that date, some travel may be able to resume based on its traffic light system.
Whilst 17 May is the aim for non-essential travel to restart, it is dependent on a review of health data.
When holidays do restart the government will introduce a risk-based traffic light system for each country. The traffic lights will indicate the tests required and whether you need to quarantine.
Currently people returning to the UK from high-risk countries have to pay to quarantine in a hotel for 10 days. All other arrivals are required to quarantine at home. In future, the government’s green list will remove the quarantine requirements for certain countries, although you will still have to supply negative Covid-19 tests even if you have been vaccinated.
