FCO statement: British Nationals in Hubei Province

Please see below a statement from the FCO, regarding an update for British nationals in Hubei Province:

An FCO spokesperson said:

We are working to make an option available for British nationals to leave Hubei Province due to the heavy travel restrictions and increased difficulty of accessing consular or medical assistance.

The safety and security of British nationals is our number one priority. We continue to monitor developments and are in close touch with the Chinese authorities.

If you are a British national in Hubei Province and require assistance please contact our 24/7 number +86 (0) 10 8529 6600 or (+44) (0)207 008 1500.
