Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether people travelling from non red list countries and who have connecting flights in English airports with final destinations in Northern Ireland are required to quarantine in England or in their end destination in Northern Ireland.

Travellers from non ‘red list’ countries travelling to Northern Ireland via England must observe the regulations in both England and Northern Ireland.

Those who are fully vaccinated are required to take a day two polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test and self-isolate at the address provided on their passenger locator form. They may leave quarantine if their day two PCR result is negative.

Non-vaccinated arrivals must quarantine for 10 days at the address provided on the passenger locator form and take day two and day eight PCR tests. They have the option to take the day five test to release, if the day two test is negative.
