"All changes on Monday.
No more PCR tests needs. Just proof of covid jabs and locator forms. "
Sorry that's not absolutely correct, after 4th October you still need a day 2 test although this can be LFT instead of PCR assuming you are double jabbed and not coming from a red country |

It’s all very confusing but I’m sure you still need a PCR day 2 test, that’s not changing till the end of October. You don’t need a test to fly home after 4th October. |

My understanding is that from the 4th October, you do not have to have the pre-travel test a couple of days before you leave.
Also on the 4th October, you have either a red list of countries, which essentially means don’t go, or a green list, which is deemed safe to travel.
Assuming you are travelling from a green country and double jabbed, then they are aiming by the end of October, to remove the need of a PCR test on day 2. They endeavour to have this in place for the school holidays. If not, you’ll need a PCR test.
Now providing they get everything in place, you will still need a test on day 2, but this will be the cheaper LFT test and should you test positive, then you will be provided with a free PCR test, so they can deep dive and identify new strains/variants.
People who are not double jabbed, will still need to go through the process of a PCR test on day 2 and day 8.
That is my layman’s understanding of the process. |

Just to add that these LFTs still have to be purchased privately and there will be a list of approved private providers on the gov uk site.
Let’s hope they don’t take the piss.
If you do test positive, then you’ll be entitled to a free PCR test.
If you’ve already gone through the arrangements and purchased PCR tests, then these are valid. You don’t have to get another test.
You’ll be able to take a photograph of your results and the booking reference supplied by the provider and send it back as proof.
If you haven’t been vaccinated, then you still need to take a PCR on day 2 after arriving and quarantine for 10 days at home.
Hope this helps. |

"Hot off the press.
From 24th October you can take the lateral flow test instead of PCR, if you’re fully vaccinated and travelling from a non-red country.  "
Hope Scotland follows suit. |
