On Sept. 20, the Biden administration announced its plans to ease the COVID-19 travel ban on all international travelers coming to the United States beginning November 2021, and instead require proof of full vaccination against COVID-19, along with proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken within 72 hours prior to boarding a flight to the U.S. It is expected that fully vaccinated travelers will continue to be required to undergo the mandatory COVID-19 testing within 72 hours prior to their departure to the U.S., and travelers who are not fully vaccinated will need to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test one day before their travel to the U.S. International travelers who are not fully vaccinated will also be required to undergo testing again after their arrival. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will specify the specific vaccines that will qualify under the new rule.
