Whatever the vaccination status of the arrival, England is mandating coronavirus PCR or LFD COVID-19 testing for entry into the country, the Bulgarian Ministry of foreign Affairs has announced.
The new restrictions are being put in place because of the new coronavirus variant Omicron.
As of 4 AM on Tuesday 7 December all people aged 12 years and over must take a PCR or LFD COVID-19 test before they travel to England from countries and territories which are not on the red list (including Bulgaria) no earlier than 48 hours before departure. The new requirements apply to persons who are vaccinated.
Before arrival by air, passengers must present documents certifying that a test has been performed, as well as a completed passenger locator form.
