The travel rule has been in place since January 2021, but the Biden official told CNN, which first reported the news, that the CDC is lifting the requirement based on “science and data.”
The CDC will reassess the situation in 90 days and could reinstate the mandate should a new variant emerge.
Airline and tourism associations – as well as a ក្រុមទ្វេភាគី of 38 U.S. mayors – have been urging the Biden administration to ease up on the travel restrictions for months, saying that they were discouraging tourism.
The Biden official said the travel mandate will be officially lifted Sunday at 12:01 a.m. EDT.

The Biden Administration originally put the rule in place after canceling restrictions that banned nonessential travel from dozens of countries, including much of Europe, China, Brazil, South Africa, India and Iran. The first iteration of the rule required travelers who were fully vaccinated to show proof of a negative test within three days of travel, while unvaccinated people had to show proof within one day of travel. But in November 2021, as the omicron variant spread, the administration tightened the mandate, requiring all travelers to test within a day of travel to the U.S., regardless of vaccination status.
