REPORTS: No New Countries Added To UK's Green Travel List - Portugal Reportedly Added To Amber

Hopes of a summer holiday abroad have been hit, with no new countries being added to the UK's Green Travel List and Portugal reportedly being moved to Amber.

Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said no further countries were being moved from the Amber to Green status in a review of the Government's travel traffic light system announced today.

There had been reports that some Greek and Spanish islands and Malta could have been added to the Green list.

Portugal was the only major holiday destination on the Green list, meaning tourists could return to the UK without having to quarantine.

People arriving in the UK from Amber list countries have to take two post-arrival tests on day two and day eight after arriving and self-isolate at home for 10 days, although they can reduce that time if they take an additional negative test on day five.

Those returning from Green locations are not required to self-isolate but they must take one post-arrival coronavirus test.
