The Biden administration is dropping Covid-19 testing requirements for inbound air travelers from abroad, marking an end to one of the longest-running travel restrictions of the pandemic.
The rules, put in place by the Trump administration in early 2021 and later tightened by the Biden administration, most recently required inbound travelers, including U.S. citizens, to show proof of a negative Covid test a day before boarding U.S.-bound flights. Travelers entering the U.S. at land border crossings were exempt.
The change takes effect 12:01 a.m. Sunday.
They will take a look at the decision in 90 days.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, they will reassess the decision in 90 days.
“If there is a need to reinstate a pre-departure testing requirement — including due to a new, concerning variant — CDC will not hesitate to act,” said one Biden administration official.
