Updates for International Travel
December 3 Policy Update: Changes to International Travel Policy
On December 2, 2021 the White House announced a number of new actions designed to address COVID-19. The announcement outlined new protocols for international travel, including the requirement that all inbound international travelers obtain a COVID test within one day of departure, regardless of vaccination status or citizenship. The CDC has updated its guidance as well. This is a change from the original international travel policy issued on October 25, 2021, which mandated a test within 3 days of departure.
If you are traveling outside the U.S., please monitor the CDC website for updates on requirements for travel to the U.S.: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/testing-international-air-travelers.html
