New CDC requirements for travelers entering the US: show proof of a negative Covid-19 test. What you need to know.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has changed the requirements for travelers entering the United States. As of Tuesday, January 26, all air passengers - ages two and older - must show proof of a negative Covid-19 test.
The new rule includes US citizens and legal permanent residents.
In a statement on their website, the CDC stated: âIf you plan to travel internationally, get tested before you travel by air into the United States (US), or be prepared to show proof of a recent positive viral test and a letter from your healthcare provider or a public health official stating that you were cleared to travel.â
