It’s expected and understandable that with the uncertainty caused by the pandemic you may feel stress and anxiety, which is why our focus on mental health and overall well-being – for the athletes we serve, for one another and for our greater community – is more important than ever before. Please refer to TeamUSA.org/MentalHealth for more information.

Please continue to monitor the COVID-19 International Sport Travel Policy Overview for updates across Team USA’s most common destinations.

• Monitor the policies for your air carrier during travel and at all layover locations in your itinerary as some airports and countries may have regulations that apply to passengers in transit.
• The policies in the linked document are specifically for sport-related travel. Entry and travel regulations may differ if traveling for tourist or other purposes.

Additional links that may be helpful with travel planning:

• Global Epidemics – shows the current positivity rates at the domestic and international levels and uses a color-coded risk system.
• European Center for Disease Prevention and Control – EU-equivalent of the CDC publishes weekly statistics and helpful graphs about the positivity and hospitalization rates for each country.
• Test for Travel – Find COVID-19 testing locations where you plan to travel.

• On Dec. 2, 2021, the U.S. government announced new testing requirements for inbound flights. Travelers will need to receive a negative test (PCR or antigen) result within one day of travel to the U.S. regardless of vaccination status. This applies to foreign nationals and U.S. citizens.

• Several presidential proclamations have limited the entry of certain travelers into the United States from a list of COVID-restricted countries.

• We are continuing outreach, but at this time, the U.S. government is not granting exceptions to the entry requirements.
