Does anyone know where I can get clarification, as this https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/brazil is different to yesterday’s news.

My MIL will be travelling on Tuesday from São Paulo to Madrid to Heathrow. , providing her COVID test is negative on Sunday. Obviously don’t want her to fly if she is to get stopped at the border.

Not sure where to get current information.

Cheers

That is the current information. Did you read the summary further down the page?

I'd be contacting the authorities both here and in Brasil (UK consulate) tbh.

From 4am on 15 January, direct flights from Brazil to the UK are prohibited. Visitors who have been in or transited through Brazil in the previous 10 days cannot enter the UK. British and Irish nationals, and third country nationals with residence rights in the UK arriving in the UK from Brazil will need to self-isolate along with their households on their return.

Pretty clear . If she has residence rights , then she can come in. if not, then she can't

Thanks all, I’ll advise my wife. Having a nightmare direct flights cancelled twice by carrier now bojo shuts the boarder. Better she doesn’t have to sit in a terminal for 2 days.

Haha! She’s a great cook and fun enough as she’s so house proud that when you find a fault she starts panicking.

Should have probably done that to China in 2019, but understandable with brexit that we don’t upset them.
