HOW TO SELF-ISOLATE AFTER ARRIVING IN THE UK

Most people must self-isolate for 14 days if they arrive in the UK from today. This applies to UK residents as well as to visitors.

Although it will not generally apply if you are travelling from the “Common Travel Area”( the Republic of Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man) it WILL apply if you have been outside the “Common Travel Area” within the last 14 days. Please check the detailed guidance below, or contact us, to see exactly how this will work.

You must go straight to the place you are staying at – which can be your own home, the home of a friend or family member, or a hotel or other temporary accommodation – and should only use public transport if you have no other option.

You should not have visitors unless they are providing essential care.

You must not go out to work, to school or to the shops and you will not be able to walk your dog.

Failure to self-isolate could lead to a fine of £1000.

It is vital to read the detailed Government guidance below before you arrive.
