The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has extended an exemption from COVID-19 travel requirements for certain nonimmigrant travelers from Ukraine.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) also extended its waiver on the pre-departure COVID-19 testing requirement through April 1 for some individuals physically present in Ukraine as of Feb. 10, including U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents and nonimmigrant foreign nationals traveling with a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident who meet the requirements listed above.
BAL Analysis: Non-U.S. nonimmigrants are exempted from COVID-19 vaccination requirement so that those traveling with U.S. citizens and permanent residents can safely leave Ukraine. Such nonimmigrants are reminded that they must meet the aforementioned requirements to enter the U.S. and most follow other applicable COVID-19 guidelines.
