The Biden administration is currently developing a "phased" plan requiring all foreign nationals traveling to the U.S. to be fully vaccinated before entry with "limited exceptions," according to a White House official.
Federal interagency working groups are "developing a policy and planning process to be prepared for when the time is right," the official also said. Reuters first reported the development of an expected vaccination requirement for most international travelers. "The interagency working groups are working to develop a plan for a consistent and safe international travel policy, in order to have a new system ready for when we can reopen travel. This includes a phased approach that over time will mean, with limited exceptions, that foreign nationals traveling to the United States (from all countries) need to be fully vaccinated," the official told CBS News. "Currently, the interagency working groups are developing a policy and planning process to be prepared for when the time is right to transition to this new system."
