UK
From 6 April 2021, new COVID-19 testing requirements will be introduced
for hauliers entering England from abroad.
All hauliers staying in the country for longer than two days will be required to take
a lateral flow test before the end of day two. Hauliers remaining in the country will
then be required to take a further test every three days – so typically on days 2, 5
and 8.
Hauliers will be able to access testing at one of the many government information
and advice sites – which provide hauliers with free coronavirus tests.
All hauliers arriving in the country will now be required to self-isolate in their cabs for
the duration of their time in England, leaving only for specific reasons such as to buy
food, use a toilet or undertake limited exercise, or get a COVID-19 test, among other
reasons.
These requirements on hauliers will apply for the 10 days after arrival.
Hauliers found not to be complying with the new self-isolation requirements
could face fines of up to £1,000.
Hauliers that test positive at any point throughout their journey in England, and
that cannot secure a safe environment in which to self-isolate, will immediately be
re-directed to self-isolate in hotel accommodation set up by the Government at a
number of locations in the country. If they are able to safely self-isolate at home or
with family or friends in the UK, there are expected to do so.
