Travellers hoping to take part in the scheme will need to opt into the scheme on the passenger locator form they fill out on arrival into the UK.
They must then book a test prior to this, and provide details of the test in the passenger locator form.
“If you decide to take part in the scheme after you have arrived in England, you will need to complete another passenger locator form,” explains the Government website.
“You will have to pay the private test provider for your test. You will need to book an individual test for each person opting in to test to release, including children.
