US extends travel restrictions to foreign nationals traveling from the UK, Ireland, Schengen Area, and Brazil; adds travel restrictions to foreign nationals traveling from South Africa
To further curb the spread of COVID19 and its more contagious variants, President Biden issued a Presidential Proclamation on January 25, extending the suspension of the entry of foreign nationals physically present within the Schengen Area, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Brazil. The Proclamation applies to those physically present in one of these jurisdictions 14 days prior to admission to the US and became effective at 12:01 a.m. EDT on January 26. This extension overturns President Trump's Proclamation issued on January 18, which would have allowed this class of persons to once again seek admission to the US.
