Portugal will be removed from the UK’s green travel list from Tuesday, amid rising coronavirus cases and concern over a “Nepal mutation of the so-called Indian variant”.
It will join the amber list, meaning holidaymakers should not visit and returnees must isolate for 10 days.
Seven nations – including Egypt, Costa Rica and Sri Lanka – will join the red list, with the toughest travel rules.
