Can I travel to the UK from one country if Ive taken a test in another?
Q I understand that arrivals into the UK must take a Covid test in the previous 72 hours. I have sought clarification online about this, and failed. Name supplied  A Fortunately, the rule for your pre-departure to the UK test is as relaxed as you could imagine. Just to explain the background: regardless of the quarantine status of the departure point (red, amber or green), everyone coming to the United Kingdom must take a test. Assuming it is negative, you will need to present it in order to board a mode of transport  train, boat or plane  to the UK. (If it is positive, it goes without saying that you should immediately self-isolate and travel nowhere.)
