On 18 November the UK lifted its embargo on vessels from Denmark coming into UK ports which was imposed on 8 November. The new rules are:
Vessels and aircraft travelling directly from Denmark are not permitted to moor or land in England if they carry any passengers.
Aircraft and vessels which do not carry passengers (freight-only) will be allowed to land and moor in England as usual.
Any crew members who land or dock in the UK, who have been in Denmark in the 14 days before their arrival, must self isolate.
Crew members will only be allowed to enter (cross border control) if they are British nationals, Irish nationals or have the right to reside in the UK.
