    Updated Information for Travelers

    Fully vaccinated travelers are less likely to get and spread COVID-19. However, international travel poses additional risks and even fully vaccinated travelers are at increased risk for getting and possibly spreading new COVID-19 variants.

    CDC recommends delaying international travel until you are fully vaccinated.

    If you are fully vaccinated with an FDA-authorized vaccine or a vaccine authorized for emergency use by the World Health Organization:

    • You should continue to follow CDC’s recommendations for traveling safely and get tested 3-5 days after travel.

    • You do NOT need to get tested before leaving United States unless your destination requires it.

    • You do NOT need to self-quarantine after arriving in the United States.
