The remaining seven countries on the UK government’s Covid travel red list will be removed from next Monday.
Fully-vaccinated arrivals from Ecuador, the Dominican Republic, Colombia, Peru, Panama, Haiti and Venezuela will no longer have to quarantine in a hotel. But the red list system will be kept in place and a country could be added back on it if cases rise there.
The changes announced by the Department for Transport will apply to passengers arriving in all four nations of the UK.
