Measures to protect England from new COVID-19 strain extended – Freight drivers returning from Denmark included

9 Nov 2020

Freight exemption removed so UK haulage drivers arriving from Denmark are now required to self-isolate on entry to England.

  • exemption for non-UK resident freight drivers removed so those who have travelled from or through Denmark in the last 14 days can no longer enter UK
  • passenger planes and ships travelling directly from Denmark, and accompanied freight, will no longer be able to land or dock at English ports
  • anyone from the UK who arrives in England after 4am 6 November after travelling from or through Denmark in the last 14 days – including HGV drivers after previous exemptions were removed - must self-isolate along with their household
