New countries have just been added to Scotland's coronavirus quarantine list, meaning that any Scots returning from holidays in those locations will be required to self isolate for 14 days on their return.
Turkey, Poland and a number of Caribbean islands have been added to Scotland's quarantine list and the rule come into place from 4am on Saturday, October 3, reports the Scottish Sun.
The restrictions have been put in place for Poland and the Caribbean islands of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba after increasing numbers of positive tests in those countries.
The Scottish Government say "it is clear that case numbers in Turkey have been under-reported" - so travellers from Turkey will also be ordered to quarantine.
Justice Secretary Humza Yousaf said: “Although we are lifting quarantine restrictions on those travelling from the Azores or Madeira, in line with the public health data we have received, people should think long and hard before choosing to travel abroad, particularly during the forthcoming October break.
"At present all foreign travel carries a risk. Quarantine requirements could be imposed on those arriving on holiday abroad, just as we may make the decision to impose the same in Scotland.
“People should think very hard before committing to non-essential foreign travel.
