-Take a Covid-19 test up to 72 hours (3 days) before departure.

-Book and pay for day 2 Covid-19 travel test- to be taken after arrival.

On arrival in England, Bulgarian citizens must:

-They must self-isolate, if the application NHS Test & Trace informs them that they have travelled with a person whose Covid-19 test result is positive.
