The United States has announced a new global air travel policy prioritizing public health and protecting U.S. citizens, residents, and visitors. Effective November 8, all foreign nationals traveling to the United States must be fully vaccinated and provide CDC-accepted proof of their vaccination status before boarding a U.S.-bound aircraft (with very restricted exceptions).

(Updated December 8, 2021) Non-U.S. citizens with nonimmigrant visas or people traveling on the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) should follow CDC guidelines, show your proof of vaccination when you travel, and test within one day before your flight. More information from the CDC website.
