Travel Recommendations as the Holiday Season Starts

As the holidays gear up, many are wondering what is required after domestic travel? (For International travel click here.)
 
For fully* vaccinated people: 

• You are not required to get tested before or after domestic travel.
• You should still follow all other travel recommendations and isolate and get tested if you develop symptoms.
• During travel, if you’ve been around someone who has COVID-19, you should get tested 5-7 days after exposure, even if you don’t have symptoms.

It is also important to wear a mask indoors in public until your test result is negative.
For unvaccinated children and adults:

• If you are unvaccinated you should get a viral test 3-5 days after travel AND stay home and self-quarantine for a full 7 days after travel.
• You should also isolate and monitor for symptoms for a full 14 days and seek repeat testing if symptoms develop.
• See CDC guidance for unvaccinated travelers.

 
* People are considered fully vaccinated 2 weeks after the second dose in a 2-dose series
