UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced an end to all remaining Covid restrictions in England on Monday, February 21.
The devolved nations will not all follow this same route, with Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland each having different rules and timelines for lifting them.
Here are the current restrictions in place in each of the four UK nations, and what has been announced about rules lifting.

Wales
A gradual easing of Covid restrictions is underway in Wales, but some measures remain. Since January 28, Wales has been in alert level zero.
Face coverings are compulsory in schools, on public transport, and in shops and hospitals, while secondary school pupils are asked to test for Covid three times a week.
Business must have specific Covid plans.
You must still isolate if you test positive for Covid. The isolation period is ten days, or five days if you have two negative lateral flow tests taken 24 hours apart.
You do not have to isolate if you are a close contact of someone who tests positive, providing you are double jabbed and test negative on a lateral flow test.
After the announcement that the Prime Minister plans to scrap free testing, the Welsh Government's health minister Eluned Morgan said: "It worries us a lot. I think we all accept that. At some point, we will have to reduce the number of tests.
"I'm particularly concerned about the ability of people who are vulnerable who can't afford to pay for an LFT test and it struck me that they hadn't even thought about that in the UK Government. So we're obviously in a different place in relation to this, in Wales, and once again, we're trying to follow the science but as I think they're following a political dynamic in Westminster."
First Minister Mark Drakeford said: "Any decision to change the existing National Testing Programme would be premature and reckless. Testing has played a pivotal role in breaking chains of transmission and as a surveillance tool helping us detect and respond to emerging variants. It's essential that this continues.
"Any decision to effectively turn off the tap on our National Testing Programme, with no future plans in place to reactivate it, would put people at risk. In Wales, we'll continue to make decisions to protect the health of people based on the scientific evidence available to us."

Covid passes no longer need to be used in Wales, but events and venues can continue to use it if they choose to.
From February 28, people will no longer need to wear face coverings in all indoor places. However, masks will still be required in shops, health and care facilities and public transport. If cases continue to fall, the Welsh Government hopes to lift all masks rules by the end of March.
Schools will also be able to make their own decisions on facemasks from February 28.
The next review of Coronavirus rules in Wales is on March 4. It covers businesses having to draw up specific plans and the rules around self-isolation.
England
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced the 'Living with Covid' plan on Monday, February 21. From this date, staff and students no longer have to test twice weekly.
From Thursday, February 24, all remaining legal restrictions are being made guidance.
There will be no legal requirement to self-isolate if you test positive for Coronavirus.
If a positive case has met vaccinated contacts, they will no longer be asked to test for seven days. Close contacts who are not vaccinated will not be asked to self-isolate. Routine contact tracing will end.
The UK Government's £500 self-isolation payment will also come to an end, as will the legal obligation for people to tell employers when they have to self-isolate. Covid provisions for statutory sick pay will be able to claimed for another month.
Councils will also lose the ability to close areas based on a raised public health risk.
Until April 1, anyone who tests positive will be advised to stay at home but after that, people with Covid symptoms will be asked to "exercise personal responsibility".
Free testing will also end in England from April 1. This led to the UK government's website running out of tests again.
Scotland
Scotland has some restrictions still in place. Social distancing remains, but this was reduced from 2m to 1m on January 31, apart from in healthcare settings.
Fully vaccinated travellers do not need to take a test when they arrive in Scotland.
People who test positive for Covid in Scotland must self-isolate, but can exit self-isolation after seven days if they have no fever and record two negative lateral flow tests.
Close contacts of positive cases must take a lateral flow test daily for seven days if fully vaccinated. If not fully vaccinated, that contact must self-isolate for ten days.
The vaccine passport scheme in Scotland will end on February 28, but apps will remain in use so businesses can use them if they wish. From this date, pupils will also no longer need to wear masks in the classroom.
Scotland's legal Covid restrictions will end on 21 March. From this point, people will be advised to wear a face covering in shops and on public transport, but this would not be a legal requirement.
People will still be asked to self-isolate if they test positive for coronavirus, though this has never been a legal requirement in Scotland.
Speaking on Tuesday, February 22, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said: "Even though certain measures, for example face coverings, may not be legal requirements in future, we will still recommend voluntary compliance as part of the range of behaviours that will help keep us safe as we manage Covid in a more sustainable and less restrictive way."

Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland's health minister revoked all remaining Covid restrictions on February 15. Rules that were formerly legally binding are now merely guidance.
This means that people will not be punished for not following restrictions, though they are still encouraged to do so.
Individual business can also still ask customers to follow rules.
People are still encouraged to wear face masks in enclosed public spaces and on public transport. Covid passports are still in use for business who wish to implement them, but it is no longer a requirement to use them.
You do not have to take a test if you are fully vaccinated and travelling to Northern Ireland.
People are still advised to work from home where possible but Health Minister Robin Swann has made it clear he wants the guidance to be urgently reviewed.
Self-isolation rules were never a legal requirement, but were classified as strong guidance. Anyone who tests positive for Covid-19 should still self-isolate for ten days, or six if if they have two consecutive lateral flow tests taken 24 hours apart.
The testing and contact-tracing system also remains in place.
On Monday, February 21, Northern Ireland's health minister Robin Swann said: "Our key priorities for testing include ensuring that it is prioritised for those who need it most.
"It is also imperative that we have appropriate contingency planning in place, with flexible testing capability which can be rapidly deployed to respond to any future variants or seasonal surges."
