COME Tuesday, Trinidad and Tobago will be put on one of the United Kingdom’s travel lists of countries travelers entering there will have to undergo a mandatory 10-day quarantine.

This country is now on the amber list. Vaccinated travellers to the UK from any amber country or territory must follow certain rules ten days before getting there.
