- Event: On December 6, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will implement a one-day COVID-19 testing requirement for travelers over age two coming to the United States.

You must show your negative result to the airline before you board your flight.

- These requirements are for all air passengers two years of age or older boarding a flight from a foreign country to the United States.
