UK Moves India Off Red List For Covid-19 Travel, Know More About Passengers From Amber List Countries

Fully vaccinated people from India flying to the United Kingdom will no longer need mandatory 10-day hotel quarantine. This comes as India has been moved from the country's "red" to "amber" list. The Department for Transport has set out the government's latest Covid-19 travel update, with all of the changes taking effect from 4 am on August 8. India, Bahrain, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates will move from the red to amber list. Indians can now quarantine at a location of their choice for 10 days after arriving in the United Kingdom. Returning from amber list countries has usually meant a 10-day period quarantining at home or any place of one's choice. But under-18s and those fully vaccinated in the UK are now exempt, as well as those who have received both jabs in the EU & the US. This shift from red to amber list will directly impact several Indian families and students looking to travel to the UK. Watch the video to know more.
