Easing of Covid-19 restrictions
The government has removed remaining domestic Covid-19 restrictions in England:
- You are not legally required to self-isolate if you test positive for Covid-19.
- You do not have to take daily tests and are not legally required to self-isolate if you come into contact with someone who has tested positive.
From 1 April:
- Covid-19 tests will no longer be free for most people.
- The use of Covid passports will no longer be recommended, except for international travel.
- The government will be updating its guidance on the steps people with Covid-19 should take to be careful and considerate of others.
There are still steps you can take to reduce the risk of catching and spreading Covid-19:
- Get vaccinated and get your booster, visit the NHS Covid-19 vaccination webpage for more information at www.nhs.uk.
- Let fresh air in if meeting indoors or meet outside.
- Consider wearing a face covering in crowded, enclosed spaces.
- Get tested if you have Covid-19 symptoms and stay home if possible.
Remaining UK Covid-19 travel restrictions have ended
All remaining Covid-19 travel restrictions have now been removed, meaning people arriving in England:
- Won’t need to take any Covid-19 tests before you travel or after you arrive.
- Don’t need to fill in a UK passenger locator form before you travel.
- Won’t need to quarantine when you arrive.
These changes apply whether you are vaccinated or not, but other countries still have Covid-19 entry rules in place. You should check travel advice before you travel.
