Does anyone know the rules if you return to the UK for 7 days? I am referring to the 10 day quarantine, PCR tests Etc.

Do you just take the 2nd day test?

At present you have to pay for 2 and 8 day tests to enable you to complete the passenger locater form with the reference code,this is mandatory for the airline to allow you to fly.
After that, who knows?

Hi - I went to the UK for 4 days - I booked day 2 and 8 test so not to get any grief at Larnaca I didn’t use the day 8 test

I did initially stay in isolation - then I did the Day 2 test the next morning after I arrived

Please note this was my personal experience…. And not to say it will different for others

Then I called 119 and argued it and they said I didn’t need to quarantine

I confirmed I wasn’t on the EU pass nor the NHS App and both AZ Zeneca had been done in NORTH Cyprus

She asked was my day 2 test negative I said yes

Then she spoke to Supervisor and said I didn’t need to quarantine

My personal view is that politically they are not going to officially say our vaccines are accepted but as I said my own personal experience…
