Where You Can Travel If You're Vaccinated

With the vaccine rollout well underway, countries are starting to make announcements about waiving quarantine and testing restrictions for travelers who are vaccinated.

If you’re beginning to think about traveling for business again, it’s important to know where you can go and what the current requirements are as some of these countries do still have bans on citizens from certain countries (including the United States in some cases). 

We promise to do our best to keep you updated on which countries are welcoming back the fully vaccinated. Check out the AmTrav COVID Resource Center for in-depth information on state- and country-wide restrictions. In the meantime, here’s a high level look at where things stand right now.
