Quarantine for 2 weeks?

Hi guys 

I’ve been living in Bali for last 6 months. Next week I travel home to London for a few months, do I have to be in quarantine for 2 weeks when I arrive home?

thanks

    At the moment, yes.

    If you’re returning to the UK, you will need to:

    • provide your journey and contact details
    • self-isolate for 14 days
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Bali doesn't appear to be on the safe list, so my assumption is that you will need to self isolate for 14 days - but keep checking that page.

    Bali isnt on the list because its not a country or territory. It is part of Indonesia....which as it happens isnt on the list either.
