Travellers from France to the United Kingdom will be required to self-certify that they are not suffering coronavirus symptoms or have been in contact with a confirmed case within 14 days preceding travel, the government has announced.
Under new rules, Brits returning from France on or after August 15 must self-isolate upon their return, due to high COVID-19 infection rates in France.
The imposition of quarantine conditions have hit Britons' favourite holiday destinations in the middle of summer and as the travel industry fights for survival.
Earlier this year the government was criticised for being too slow to lock down at the beginning of the pandemic when many cases were thought to have arrived from holidaymakers returning from Italy.
