You must complete this form before you arrive in the UK. You cannot submit the form until 48 hours before youโre due to arrive in the UK.
This is a free service. You do not need to pay another website or business to provide your contact details for you.
Youโll need to show your completed form when you arrive at the UK border, either by printing a copy, or showing it on your phone.
The government will use this information to contact you if you or someone youโve travelled with develops coronavirus (COVID-19) symptoms.
If you need to self-isolate for the first 14 days after you arrive in the UK, the government will also use the information to check that youโre self-isolating.
If you develop coronavirus symptoms
Do not travel if you have coronavirus symptoms.
If you develop coronavirus symptoms when youโre travelling to the UK, tell the crew or driver on your plane, ferry, train or bus. Theyโll tell staff in the airport, port or station, so they can tell you what you should do next when you arrive.
If youโre travelling with other people
You and the people youโre travelling with must all complete a separate form.
If youโre travelling with someone under 18 years old, they do not need their own form if you:
- will arrive and leave together
- will stay at the same UK address
- add their details into your form
If you will enter the UK more than once in 48 hours
You can include multiple journeys in your form if you will enter the UK more than once in 48 hours, for example if youโre a haulier or crew member.

You do not need to complete the form if youโre travelling from one of the following places, and you were there for 14 days or more:
- Ireland
