The USA will allow travelers vaccinated against the coronavirus back into the country from 8 November. „The new U.S. travel policy, which requires foreign travelers to be vaccinated, will begin on November 8,“ a White House spokesperson said on Twitter on Friday. In addition to a vaccination before departure, travelers will also have to present a negative corona test in the future.

The current regulations prohibit entry for those who have been in the Schengen area, Ireland or the UK in the previous 14 days. Entry bans also apply to China, India, Brazil, South Africa and Iran. US citizens, people with a permanent residence permit - a so-called green card - and holders of certain visas with an exemption are not affected.
