List of 59 'air bridge' countries confirmed by government

Passengers returning to, or visiting England from those destinations with a "reduced risk" of re-importing coronavirus will no longer need to self-isolate on arrival.

The rule change will come into effect from Friday 10 July, slightly later than previously suggested.

The devolved nations are due to set out their own rules at a later date.

The Foreign Office’s advisory against all non-essential travel worldwide – in place since March – will also be updated from Saturday (4 July) to allow travel to exempted countries. Click here to see the list.

See the list of 59 countries below. Ireland is already exempt as part of the common travel area, as are the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.

In addition, the 14 British Overseas Territories are exempted.

This list may be added to over the coming days following further discussions between the UK and "international partners".
