Last updated: 30 January 2023

As countries across the world begin to reopen their borders, travel and testing requirements remain for many countries. Make sure you check the specific requirements for the country you are visiting with the FCDO. Our Travel Specialists are always on hand to answer any of your questions.

As well as the requirements set out by the country you are visiting; you’ll also need to consider the requirements set out by the UK government.
