Starting at 4 a.m. on Monday, October 4, 2021, the rules for international travel to England will change from the system of red, amber and green lights to a single red list of countries and simplified travel metrics for arrivals from the rest of the world.

The rules for traveling from countries and territories not on the red list will depend on your immunization status.

Due to the impending changes, UK hotels, restaurants and attractions, especially in London, are gearing up for a return in overseas tourism.
