News / AMR™ Collection updates its testing and quarantine guidelines according to the recent CDC announcement
CDC testing requirements for return to the U.S.
AMR™ Collection would like to provide you with important updates to testing and quarantine requirements as recently communicated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
CDC Testing Requirements for Return to the U.S.
A COVID-19 viral test is required no more than one day before you travel by air (regardless of vaccination status or citizenship) into the United States from an international destination. Travelers must show a negative test result to the airline before boarding a flight. People who have recently recovered from COVID-19 may instead travel with documentation of recovery from COVID-19. Documentation of recovery includes a positive viral test during the past 90 days AND a signed letter from a healthcare provider or a public health official that states you have been cleared for travel. You will also be required to confirm that the information you present is true in the form of an attestation. These requirements do not apply to children under 2 years of age.
Additional Testing Requirements
Please note that some international destinations may require COVID-19 viral tests prior to arrival in that destination. Travelers are reminded to confirm COVID-19 policies specific to their destination before traveling. Additionally, U.S. states, workplaces and schools may have separate guidelines related to return from international travel, and individuals are reminded to understand and comply with specific requirements as applicable.
CDC Quarantine Guidelines
If you test positive, the CDC recommends you quarantine for at least five days after your positive test or later if you are still experiencing symptoms. However, please be aware that local jurisdictions, destinations and resorts may have their own requirements, which must be followed when in-country.
