Portugal is to be added to the amber list in Northern Ireland.

From that date, travellers arriving in Northern Ireland either directly or indirectly from Portugal must also provide proof of a negative Covid-19 test result taken up to three days before departure, book post-arrival day two and eight testing and complete a UK passenger locator form 48 hours before departure.
