What are the green list travel rules?
Anyone coming back to Britain from a green list destination will need to have two Covid tests.
This includes a pre-arrival Covid test, and also a test on or before day two of returning to the UK.
Quarantine or additional testing is not needed upon return, unless the post-arrival test is positive.
A Passenger Locator Form must also be completed before arrival.

Brits should still check the entry requirements of green list countries as the agreement for quarantine-free restrictions is not reciprocal.
Austria is still banning British holidaymakers, along with Norway, while Germany and Romania are welcoming UK arrivals if they are vaccinated.
Bulgaria has introduced their own UK travel ban as well, while Croatia requires a negative Covid test even from vaccinated travellers.
Green-list Malta is only letting in vaccinated Brits, but a family holiday to Malta is unlikely as new rules mean 12-17 year olds must be fully vaccinated as well to avoid quarantine.
Amber countries require a mandatory 10-day quarantine at home as well as a Covid test on day two and eight, unless Brits are vaccinated.
Red countries will have to isolate for 10-days at a quarantine hotel, now costing £2,285 per person.
