Coronavirus: What are the UK travel quarantine rules?

Which other countries are affected and how could that change?

The quarantine requirement for Belgium, the Bahamas and Andorra came in to immediate effect in Wales on Thursday night. It will apply to those entering England, Scotland and Northern Ireland from 04:00 BST on Saturday.

The list of countries exempt from quarantine rules has been updated regularly.

People arriving in the UK from Spain and Luxembourg were recently told they also have to self-isolate.

After France recorded a two-month high in coronavirus cases on 5 August, questions were raised about whether it could also lose its exemption.

Asked what the thousands of holidaymakers in France and those preparing to visit should do, Chancellor Rishi Sunak said it is a "tricky situation".

"We're in the midst of a global pandemic and that means there is always the risk of disruption to travel plans and people need to bear that in mind," he told Sky News@Breakfast.

From early June, most people entering the UK were told to self-isolate for 14 days to help contain any coronavirus cases from overseas.

A month later, the government published a list of ''lower risk'' countries that could be visited without the need to self-isolate on return to England. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland can make their own quarantine rules, but they have tended to be similar.

Travellers from affected countries - including UK nationals - are asked to provide an address where they will self-isolate for 14 days. They can be fined £100 for failing to fill in a form with these details.

One in five eligible passengers will be called or texted to check they are following the rules.

People who do not self-isolate can be fined up to £1,000 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and £480 in Scotland. There are fines up to £5,000 for persistent offenders.

Passengers should drive their own car to their destination if possible. If they don't provide an address, the government will arrange accommodation at the traveller's expense.

Once at their destination, they must not use public transport or taxis during the quarantine period. They must also not go to work, school, or public areas, or have visitors except for essential support.

Nor are they allowed to go out to buy food, or other essentials, if they can rely on others.

People returning from overseas will not be automatically eligible for statutory sick pay during this period, unless they meet the required conditions - for example, displaying coronavirus symptoms.

Anyone arriving from the Common Travel Area (CTA) - the Republic of Ireland, the Channel Islands, or the Isle of Man - does not have to enter quarantine, if they have been in the CTA for at least 14 days.

Travellers from than than 50 countries deemed ''low risk'' do not have to quarantine, with a further five countries - Estonia, Latvia, Slovakia, Slovenia and St Vincent and the Grenadines added to the list on 28 July. These are known as ''travel corridors'' although some of these countries will impose restrictions on travellers entering from the UK.

Brunei and Malaysia will see the requirement to self-isolate for arrivals into England and Wales removed from 04:00 BST on 11 August.

Health measures including quarantine rules are set by each UK nation separately - although Wales has adopted the same exemptions as England. Since 10 July, Scotland's quarantine measures have also been eased, as have Northern Ireland's.

There are a number of people who are exempt, regardless of their country of origin, including:

Travellers could find they also have to enter quarantine when they arrive in another country, even if they do not have to quarantine in the UK on their return. Some countries have introduced screening measures like temperature checks, and entry restrictions. For example:
