England’s travel traffic-light system replaced and testing requirements to change

All countries will now be on the red list or no list, with the fully vaccinated no longer required to test before returning home

An overhaul of England's Covid-19 rules governing international travel will come into force from Monday 4 October, replacing the traffic-light system.
