Travellers arriving in Scotland this weekend from the Canary Islands will now have to self-isolate on arrival.
Scots returning from the holiday hotspot from Saturday will have to quarantine for 14-days.
The move comes following a 'significant increase' in the number of positive coronavirus cases being identified on the islands.
Botswana and Saudi Arabia are being added to the list of destinations exempt from the current 14-day quarantine period on arrival in Scotland.
Justice Secretary Humza Yousaf said: “Our first line of defence in managing the risk of imported cases from communities with high risks of transmission is imposing quarantine restrictions.
"The virus remains a significant challenge in Scotland and across the world and it is imperative that we disrupt the spread of it.
“While we are adding Botswana and Saudi Arabia to the list of countries where travellers are exempt from quarantine on arrival in Scotland, our message remains clear that people should think very hard before committing to any non-essential foreign travel. The public health situation, and therefore our response to it, can change rapidly.”
