Changes made to amber list rules

Changes are being made for those travelling to the Isle of Man from amber list countries.

From today, anyone arriving in England from an amber list country and then coming to the Island, won't have to book a private Covid-19 test in the UK.

To qualify, passengers must remain in their port of entry before travelling to the Isle of Man or, if leaving, they must be entering England for the sole purposes of continuing their journey to the Isle of Man.

Before travelling to England from an 'amber' place - people must have proof they don't have Coronavirus and complete a passenger locator form.

Passengers may be asked to show evidence at the border when travelling. 

There are different rules for passengers arriving from an amber list country in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Locals arriving on Island who have travelled to any country outside of the Common Travel Area (Guernsey, Ireland, Jersey, and the United Kingdom) in the previous 10 days are required to isolate on arrival, either for 21 days or for 7 days if they agree to have a test on arrival and again on day 6, at a cost of £30.
