Am travelling from the US to Edinburgh Scotland in June 2022. As of 1/18/2022, is the following correct?
1. I do no need to test for COVID prior to leaving the US.
2. I must do a PCR test within day 2 of arriving in Scotland.
3. I must self isolate until that test is confirmed negative.
If correct, please answer the following
1. Where do I go or how do I get the PCR Test.? (arriving in Edinburgh).
2. Can I pre-order a test and have it with me when I travel to Scotland and if so, who do I report the test results to?
Thank you.

Thank you.
Ramblin - you indicate my question #2 is not correct however, please see attached from the link you provided. What am I missing?
"If you’re fully vaccinated
If you’re fully vaccinated, there are 3 things you must do before you arrive in Scotland:
1. Make sure that you’re able to prove you’re fully vaccinated
2. Book a COVID-19 day 2 test
3. Complete a Passenger Locator Form on gov.uk"
I appreciate the help.

well, half a point for a PCR test, but for a full point the correct answer is a PCR test or a lateral flow test 😉
it's quite possible no tests will be needed come June
