REMOVAL OF U.S. PRE-DEPARTURE TESTING
2022-06-11
We’re pleased to share the welcome news that the Biden administration has confirmed that from Sunday 12 June 2022 at 00.01 (U.S. Eastern Time) international arrivals by air to the US will no longer require a pre-departure Covid-19 test.
A tweet from the White House Press Secretary here confirms the policy change, with further details expected soon from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The removal of pre-departure testing for international arrivals to the US will boost consumer confidence even further and support the rebound in transatlantic travel this summer.
Please note, while yet to be confirmed, we expect that all foreign national visitors aged 18 or over to the US will still need to be fully vaccinated (unless exempt) and present proof of full vaccination, with all travellers completing a Passenger Disclosure and Attestation form before travel.
