MANAGING YOUR BUSINESS TRAVEL WITH COVID-19



While it’s great to be able to travel again, there are some extra considerations
you need to make, before you book. To help you with these, we’ve pulled together
a list of useful information and resources below. (We are called Clarity after
all…)
Please Note: Clarity has collated the information on this page as an information
resource only. It does not replace any rules, policies or guidance that is
issued by your employer nor does it relieve you of your obligations to comply
with the same. Where links or embedded content are provided, they are links and
embedded content linked to third party websites over which Clarity has no
editorial or other control of any nature. Clarity does not own any information
displayed on any such website nor have any ability or responsibility to maintain
the same. Clarity makes no representation, warranty or assurance against risk
with respect to the contents or use of the above suggested resources, and
specifically disclaims any express or implied warranties or usefulness for any
purpose. Where any of the above resources provide or make any judgments as to
travel, Clarity does not provide any express or implied warranty in respect of
the same or in respect of any unforeseen escalation of any factors affecting any
such judgment.
 


COVID-19 TRAVEL & VISA RESTRICTIONS: INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL INFORMATION AND
RESOURCES

To help you view travel restrictions in a clear format, we’ve partnered with
CIBT to provide clear information on departure and arrivals. CIBT are the
largest and most well-established travel visa services company in the world.

widget will not take you to your CIBT visa account. Please go to your dedicated

COVID-19 TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS: TRAVELLING FROM AND RETURNING TO THE UK

Travelling abroad from the UK

It is your responsibility to check and comply with any testing, vaccination, or
quarantine restrictions for your destination. You should check latest government
information for your destination. Guidance is provided via:
– https://www.gov.uk/travel-abroad and the Covid-19 Travel & Visa Restrictions:
Information and Resources sections above offers extra help.



Returning to the UK

From 18th March 2022, all entry restrictions when travelling to the UK were
removed.

Any traveller who enters the UK from this date, whether they are vaccinated or
not, will no longer need to fill in a passenger locator form or take any
COVID-19 tests – before you travel or after you arrive.

Travellers will also no longer need to quarantine when they arrive into the UK.

These rules apply to the whole of the UK.

Further detailed guidance on COVID-19 rules for all devolved nations can be
found below:

 * entering Scotland
 * entering Wales
 * entering Northern Ireland

There are different rules if you have been in a red list country or territory in
the 10 days before you arrive in the UK. There are currently no countries or
territories on the red list.

 


COVID-19 TESTS

Undertaking Covid-19 tests at certain points in time before, during and after
your trip may be required for international travel. You need to plan how and
when you will take and process your test in order to meet travel requirements
and not disrupt your trip.



In some cases, you may need to take a Rapid Antigen or PCR type test to confirm
a negative result. Please check the requirements of your trip as these can
change.

The Covid-19 negative result status can be produced in different ways.
Generally, this is either delivered as a pdf certificate attached to an email or
as an update within the test provider app.

Test Providers in the UK

You may need to conduct tests in the UK before you depart for your destination.

Be aware: When deciding on a test for travel, it’s important to check the FCDO
advice “Entry requirements” and destination government advice detail. If it
stipulates a certain kind of PCR test, (for example, nasal swab,) ensure you are
choosing the correct test type.

Also check detail on how test results should be produced. Often results need to
be produced in English, Spanish or French.

We offer three UK based testing providers below for information purposes only.
These tests are not available directly with Clarity. Please take your time to
read the information, terms and conditions that each of these providers offer if
you do want to purchase a test.

additional/alternative countries visited including your home country.The best
place to find local destination test providers is through the Covid-19 advice
pages on the website of the airline you are travelling with. Also useful is to
check FCDO advice regarding Covid-19 for your destination, who link to
destination government advice and resources.

insurer, when you book with Clarity, you can see how airlines, hotels and rail
providers mitigate risks for your trip. We also suggest:
• To avoid crowds at the airport, book lounge access.
• To help reduce possible queueing at the airport, book fast-track and concierge
services.
• Rather than using public transport, consider using a taxi.All of these
products are bookable via Go2Book or direct with your branch.We know that the
situation can change when you’re away too.
• Ensure you are kept up to date with Travel Alerts by providing latest contact
details within your booking.
• To access destination advice, live travel updates and notifications,
download Go2Mobile

As mentioned above, making use of lounge access, fast-track, concierge and
private taxis will help to reduce transmissions and improve traveller wellbeing.
If you don’t currently have these travel products activated within your travel
policy, please speak to your account manager.

Many Travel Managers already use our Go2Track risk management platform to easily
monitor traveller locations, brief travellers before departure, and automate
risk alerting for global travel.

Finally, if not already in place, Covid-19 has demonstrated the value of risk
management planning with a travel program. Clarity have you covered with
