Non-US travellers will be required to show proof of full vaccination against Covid-19 as part of the new rules. They will also have to provide evidence of having testing negative for Covid-19 up to 72 hours prior to departure.
Unvaccinated arrivals will likely be subject to additional testing requirements, the White House has intimated.
White House Covid coordinator Jeffrey Zients confirmed early details of the US’s travel plan to national press outlets in the US on Monday afternoon (20 September).
