Switzerland will impose a quarantine on those arriving from Spain (except the Balearic and Canary Islands)

Updated on the day: 5/8/2020. Swiss just updated its list of countries for which it requires quarantine, adding Spain, except the Balearic and Canary Islands.

Thus, travelers arriving in Switzerland from anywhere in our country other than the islands must keep 10 days of quarantine from 00.00 on Saturday, August 8.

This has been stated on the website of the Federal Office of Public Health of the Swiss Confederation.

The list of countries and areas will be updated on August 8, 2020 and from the page itself they report that a negative result does not exempt the mandatory quarantine requirement.

UK

Any person coming from Spain will have to save a 14-day quarantine on arrival in the UK if you enter this country from 00.00 hours on Sunday 26.

The decision is already collected on the website of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (British Foreign Office), where they also publish a guide on how to carry out this quarantine that they call **"self-isolation". **

In it they explain that people, whether they are citizens of the United Kingdom or visiting tourists, who arrive from a country that is not included in the list of countries exempt from quarantine they will not be allowed to leave the place where they are staying during the first 14 days.

And yes, there will be sanctions for those who do not comply with it. For example, in the case of England the fines can reach 1,000 pounds (about 1,100 euros) if the quarantine is not respected and 3,200 (about 3,500 euros) if the correct contact details are not provided. Among these data, travelers are asked for the address where they will be performing the "self-isolation".

The outbreaks that are being registered have led the British authorities to remove arrivals from Spain from that list of countries exempt from quarantine.
