COVID-19 testing is now required to re-enter the United States

As of January 26, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) will require all air passengers who are entering the United States (including U.S. citizens and Legal Permanent Residents) to present a negative COVID-19 test.

The COVID test must be taken within three calendar days of departing or, you must have proof of recovery from the virus within the last 90 days​. 

Airlines will have to confirm the negative test result or proof of recovery for all passengers two years of age and over prior to boarding. ​Airlines will be required to deny boarding of any passengers who do not provide documentation of a negative test or recovery.
