Abstract:
The goal of this information collection is two-fold: To ensure that, consistent with the terms of the October 25, 2021 Amended Order Under Section 361 of The Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. § 264) and 42 Code Of Federal Regulations §§ 71.20 and 71.31(b). Requirement For Negative Pre-Departure Covid-19 Test Result Or Documentation Of Recovery From COVID-19 For All Airline Or Other Aircraft Passengers Arriving Into The United States From Any Foreign Country public health authorities in the United States can confirm that air passengers have received a negative test result for COVID-19 or, if they tested positive for the virus that causes COVID-19 in the past 3 months to have documentation that they have recovered and been cleared to travel by a licensed health care provider or public health official, prior to departing a foreign country and arriving in the United States. To ensure that, consistent with the terms of the October 30, 2021 Amended Order Under the Presidential Proclamation titled Advancing Safe Resumption of Global Travel During the COVID-19 Pandemic and CDC’s Order Implementing Proclamation on Advancing Safe Resumption of Global Travel During the COVID-19 Pandemic, public health authorities can confirm that non-U.S Citizen, Non-U.S. Immigrant passengers are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 before boarding a plane to the United States. The current Revision is submitted based on a revised COVID-19 Testing Order to shorten the timeline for required testing for all international air passengers to one day before departure to the United States. This revision strengthens already robust protocols in place for international travel, including requirements for foreign travelers to be fully vaccinated in response to the new COVID-19 variant, Omicron. The revised Order will be effective December 6, 2021. This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted to: 1) Update the language in the attestation related to post arrival quarantine and isolation periods for noncitizen nonimmigrants who meet an exception to the proof of vaccination requirement, and 2) Reformat attestation to make it more user friendly for international travelers and airlines to integrate into the boarding process. There is no change in estimated burden.
Emergency Justfication:
On December 2, 2021, CDC revised the COVID-19 testing Order to shorten the timeline for required testing for all international air passengers to one day before departure to the United States. This revision strengthens already robust protocols in place for international travel, including requirements for foreign travelers to be fully vaccinated in response to the new COVID-19 variant, Omicron. Effective December 6, 2021, all air passengers 2 years or older, regardless of citizenship or vaccination status, will be to be required to show a negative pre-departure COVID-19 test taken no more than one day before they board their flight to the United States. Previously, air passengers who were fully vaccinated had could get a test no more than three days before their flight departed. Air passengers who recovered from COVID-19 in the past 90 days may instead travel with documentation of recovery from COVID-19 including their positive viral test result and a letter from a licensed healthcare provider or a public health official stating they were cleared to travel. This update requires changes to the Combined Passenger Disclosure and Attestation to the United States of America. Additionally, to help reduce the amount of personally identifiable information collected, CDC is revising the collection of information needed to issue a humanitarian exemption to the testing requirement or a humanitarian or emergency exception to the proof of vaccination requirement.
