The Quarantine Rules are likely to last until at least July 2020, but could last longer as the rule will be revised every three weeks. This denotes that the earliest estimated date that this rule will be assessed is 29 June 2020.
Health officers will execute spot checks to ensure obedience with the quarantine procedures and those passengers who do not obey may be fined £1000.
As a feature of the United Kingdom Government’s COVID-19 recovery plan, a variety of new methods are being introduced at the United Kingdom border influencing all international arrivals. This comprises the launch of new quarantine rules for those journeying to the United Kingdom.
What are the COVID-19 UK border measures?
The new guidelines take effect from 8 June 2020 and will apply at the UK border to both United Kingdom nationals and visitors reaching by air, sea, car and international rail. The guidelines include:
All international arrivals must provide information regarding their journey, contact and accommodation.
All travellers are obligated to self-isolate for 14 days after arriving into the United Kingdom.
Arrivals will also be strictly instructed to download and use the NHS contact tracing app, and improved information will be provided about the United Kingdom’s social distancing routine.
What are the measures on Data collection?
From 8 June 2020, all passengers to the United Kingdom will be required to complete an online form before they travel, to provide their contact and trip information.
What is the 14 day quarantine for arrivals into the United Kingdom?
Passengers arriving into the United Kingdom from 8 June 2020 should travel directly to the place they are residing and stay there for the first 14 days they are in the United Kingdom, except one of the regulated exemptions applies.
Please keep in mind that you must stay in self-isolation at the location you are residing for a period of 14 days.
You might only be allowed to leave your accommodation if:
You require serious medical treatment
You want support from social services
You need medicine and food and unable to get them provided or get a friend or family member to fetch them
You are going to the funeral of a close relative, or for other empathetic motives
There is a tragedy (the United Kingdom Home Office website provides the example of a fire at the place where you are self-isolating).
During this phase, you are not permitted to have family, friends or visitors around except they are giving “essential care”.
If you are residing with family, friends or others, you must stay away from contact with them during the self-isolation period and reduce any time in common areas.
If you are lodging at a guest house or a hotel, you need to stay 2 meters away from all staff and guests. Furthermore, you are not permitted to use communal spaces such as restaurants, bars or health and sports facilities.
If you are unable to self-isolate for the 14 day period, you must contact the border official for alternative accommodation to be settled.
What will happen after 14 days self-isolation?
If after 14 days self-isolation you do not obtain symptoms of COVID-19, you can get out of quarantine. You should then obey the latest up to date assistance advice from the United Kingdom Government, which is in relation to social distancing.

What to do if you are Developing Covid-19 symptoms?
Firstly, if you are developing Covid-19 symptoms, you should not travel at all.
If you have coronavirus indications during your journey to the United Kingdom, you must warn a member of the crew of the plane or ferry, or the driver on your train or bus. They will then inform the staff at the airport, port or station, so they can advise you what you must do next when you reach your destination.
