COVID-19 Self Tests are Now Available for Travel
We hope you’re getting excited about traveling to Europe soon! One of the things that weighs on most travelers’ minds is ensuring they have all the required information to get into their destination country and then also back home.
To return to the United States, travelers must meet re-entry COVID-19 testing requirements. We include copies of the United States Passenger Attestation Form for re-entry with your final pack, but you will also need to have a negative viral test (NAAT or antigen test) within 3 days of your return flight in your destination country.
It’s now possible to order a test here to take along with you! We provide the links to our recommended testing kits below.
These tests are self-administered but you need to be on a video call with a Telehealth worker to witness you doing it. The appointments can be scheduled in Europe, but we highly recommend booking your video observation now to ensure appointment availability for the exact date when you need to be tested.
The top 3 major airlines suggest the following self-test kits:
United (please note you need 2 tests per traveller)
Or a smaller BinaxNOW test kit for 1 person – (please note you need 2 tests per traveller)
There’s still time to purchase travel insurance if you haven’t already done so, in the case of a positive test this should cover you for quarantine expenses, medical expenses etc. Please let us know if you would like to receive a quote.
