London, March 23 (TIWN) Staring from March 29, the UK will impose a 5,000 pound fine on anyone from England travelling abroad without a valid reason, such as a medical emergency, as part of the government's new Covid-19 laws, the media reported on Tuesday.
It is worth noting that currently foreign holidays are not allowed under the “stay at home” rule which ends on Monday. From next week the ban on leaving the country will become a specific law, backed by the threat of the fine. Now, under the new laws, anyone who leaves England for a destination outside the UK without a reasonable excuse, such as for work, education or medical treatment, could face a hefty fine.
