Gov. Bryan Discusses Return to In-Person Learning, Lifting of International Travel Ban in United States
During Monday’s Government House weekly press briefing, Gov. Albert Bryan Jr. pointed to President Biden’s removal of the international travel ban as the world taking a step toward normalcy and said the current rules to enter the U.S. Virgin Islands, which have proven extremely effective, will remain as they are.

“The United States will now allow fully vaccinated travelers at airports and land borders, doing away with a COVID-19 restriction that dates back more than 20 months. The new rules will allow air travel from previously restricted countries if the traveler has proof of vaccination and a negative COVID-19 test, like what we have in place here in the territory with our USVI travel portal,” Bryan said. “The current requirements to enter the USVI will remain in place for the foreseeable future. Those requirements include submitting through the USVI travel portal a negative PCR or Antigen test taken within 5 days of the date of your travel to the territory or uploading proof of vaccination within the USVI.” Read more.
