Whether you're going away for work or simply a relaxing holiday, those who travel internationally must take a Covid-19 test no more than one day before travelling back to the United States, as required by the CDC.
This can add complications to your travel plans, as sourcing a Covid test abroad for your Return to the US can often be costly and stressful for many reasons. To help solve these issues, we've developed a fully compliant testing solution to make pre-travel testing for the USA easy, quick and straightforward. Read on to learn how our Covid-19 Ag test works.
As stated in the CDC order, tests must be a viral test that is either an antigen test or a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT). In simple terms, Rapid Antigen tests are valid. Alternatively, you'll want to find an RT-PCR test, a TMA test or a LAMP test.
However, there are additional guidelines that travellers must adhere to when selecting a self-test, which can further complicate matters. The test must have received a EUA from the FDA, and the testing procedure must be supervised in real-time over video by a service affiliated with the test manufacturer.

The requirement to present a negative Covid-19 test before entry applies to all air passengers, two years of age or older, travelling into the US, including US citizens and legal permanent residents.
We'd also urge you to check if there are any further requirements relating to Covid-19 testing or quarantine after returning from abroad specific to the country you have travelled to/are returning from.
