On 11th October Rwanda was added to the UK's safe travel list.

Rwanda’s removal from the UK travel red list means passengers arriving from Rwanda will no longer have to hotel-quarantine.

As of 4th October 2021 the rules for international travel to England were simplified to have one red-list, and then regulations for travel from the ‘rest of the world’. As of 4am on 11th October Rwanda will be moved into the “rest of world” category.
