US to lift Covid travel ban for fully vaccinated passengers from UK and EU


The US will lift Covid-19 travel restrictions to allow fully vaccinated passengers to travel from the UK and EU to travel into the country from November, the Biden administration has announced.

The statement from the White House will mark the end of a travel ban imposed by Donald Trump more than 18 months ago in the early stages of the pandemic, and comes after intense lobbying from Brussels and London.

Under the current policy, only American citizens, their immediate families, green card holders and those with national interest exemptions (NIE) could travel into the US if they have been in the UK or EU in the previous two weeks.

More details soon….
