These Regulations amend the Health Protection (Coronavirus) (International Travel) (Scotland) Regulations 2020 ("the International Travel Regulations").
They remove Aruba, France, Malta, Monaco and The Netherlands from the list of exempt countries and territories in schedule A1 of the International Travel Regulations, and remove the Turks and Caicos Islands from the list of United Kingdom overseas territories in that schedule. This means that persons arriving in Scotland on or after the time these Regulations come into force are no longer exempt from the movement restriction in regulation 6 of the International Travel Regulations if, during the 14 days preceding their arrival, they have departed from or transited through Aruba, France, Malta, Monaco, The Netherlands or the Turks and Caicos Islands.
