The United Kingdom (UK) has lifted the travel quarantine restrictions on Ghana and other countries, an official statement said.
This means Ghana will now be added to the list of countries and territories with approved proof of vaccination from Monday 11 October.
Hitherto travellers from the affected countries have had to undergo compulsory quarantine upon arrival in the UK. Travellers who can benefit from the restriction must ensure they have had a complete course of either Oxford /AstraZeneca, Pfizer BioNTech, Moderna or Janssen vaccines at least 14 days before arriving in the UK.
If you were vaccinated in a country or territory that is not on this list, or with a vaccine that is not listed, you must follow the rules for people who do not qualify as fully vaccinated.
If you have been in a red list country or territory in the 10 days before you arrive in England, you must follow the red list rules. You must do this whether you qualify as fully vaccinated or not.
