Destination updates as per FCO

This is a document compiled on the basis of UK nationals only and the FCO advice relating to them. There may be other restrictions for non-UK nationals, in which case we refer you to check the FCO Travel website.

As countries respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, including travel and border restrictions, the FCO advises British nationals against all but essential international travel. Any country or area may restrict travel without notice. If you live in the UK and are currently travelling abroad, you are strongly advised to return now, where and while there are still commercial routes available.
