New Delhi – After multiple warnings of “reciprocal action” against the UK over the country’s rigid vaccine travel norms, India has made it mandatory for UK passengers to undergo a 10-day quarantine irrespective of their vaccination status. All passengers from the UK to India now have to carry a negative RT-PCR report and stay in mandatory quarantine for 10 days after arrival in India.

New regulations are likely to come into effect from October 4, and will be applicable to all UK nationals arriving from #Britain https://t.co/O4b6pnh5ZD

In addition to this, British citizens will have to submit an RT-PCR test report for Covid-19. This decision will be implemented from 4th October. British citizens will be required to test for Covid again 8 days after their arrival. An official from the Ministry of Health and Civil Aviation said, “We have decided to adopt a ‘tit-for-tat’ policy”.

Britain had initially rejected the ‘Covishield’ vaccine, which was made in India, but later approved. However, people travelling from India to the UK were required to undergo an RTPCR test and a 10-day quarantine.
