Portugal added to UK quarantine exemption list
Arrivals into the UK from Portugal will no longer have to quarantine for 14 days, following the government’s decision to add the country to the list of ef exempted destinations.
The change came into effect from 0400 on Saturday August 22, and will be a welcome relief for Portugal’s tourism industry, with the national tourism board describing itself as “delighted”.
But Austria, Croatia and Trinidad and Tobago have been removed from the exemption list, following spikes in Covid-19 cases.
