The Department for Transport of England has updated the "red, amber and green list rules for entering England".
While Turkey has remained on the "red list", Bahrain, India, Qatar and United Arab Emirates have moved to the "amber list."
As part of this system, there are specific rules one must follow to enter England depending on the country of departure that is rated as "red", "amber" or "green." The "red list" countries are marked by a warning of "You should not travel to red list countries or territories".
The latest update in England's three-color travel restrictions was announced on August 4 in the following words:
"From 4am Sunday 8 August, the fully vaccinated amber rules will apply to France. At the same time, Austria, Germany, Latvia, Norway, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia will move to the green list. Bahrain, India, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) will move to the amber list. Georgia, Mayotte, Mexico and Reunion will move to the red list."
