ADRIAN DENNIS / AFP

Starting today, travellers flying from the UAE to the UK will have to self-isolate for 10 days.

It comes after the UK Department of Transport amended its travel corridor list.

In addition, passengers from the UAE will have to present a negative COVID-19 test result taken up to three days before departing for the UK.  

They will need to present this along with a passenger locator form.
