Assistant press secretary Kevin Munoz confirmed the date in a tweet shortly before 2pm on Friday (15 October) after press reports citing the 8 November date.
It comes after US president Joe Biden said on 20 September the US would reopen to international arrivals after an 18-month travel ban in early November.
"The US’s new travel policy that requires vaccination for foreign national travellers to the United States will begin on 8 November," said Munoz.
