    Home Test

    Just curious to know if anybody that has recently returned to U.S. have used the free government issued antigen rapid test. If so, was there any drawbacks?

    What kinds of tests meet the testing requirement?
    Travelers must show documentation of a negative viral COVID-19 test result or documentation of recovery from COVID-19 within the past 90 days before boarding a plane to the United States (or before boarding the first flight in a series of connections booked on the same itinerary to the United States).
    Both nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs), such as a PCR test, and antigen tests qualify.
    A self-test can be used if it meets the requirements of the order including real-time proctoring by a telehealth service affiliated with the manufacturer of the test and that generates a test result that can be reviewed by the airline before boarding.   
    This is the same standard for qualifying tests that has applied to the pre-departure testing requirement since January.
