Double-jabbed UK holidaymakers returning from France must still quarantine

The announcement means anyone who has been in France in the last 10 days will need to self-isolate as well as taking a test after two and eight days, regardless of their vaccination status.

Holidaymakers returning to England from France will still have to self-isolate when they get back even if they are fully vaccinated, the UK Government has announced.

From Monday, UK residents arriving from countries on the UK Government’s amber list will no longer have to quarantine at home for 10 days if they have had both jabs.
