Starting on October 24, citizens traveling to England who have been fully vaccinated can do an antigen test instead of a PCR. According to the Bulgarian embassy in London, people who got fully vaccinated at least 14 days before arriving to England from countries that are not on the "red list", including Bulgaria, can get an antigen test before the second day after their arrival. The tests can be purchased from private suppliers.

Fully vaccinated citizens will also have the opportunity to book an antigen test on arrival at test centers located in some of the airports. The list of approved private test providers is published on the British government website www.gov.uk
