According to news that came in suddenly this morning, senior U.S. government officials have asked all airborne immigrants to submit a new coronavirus negative certificate for a test within 24 hours before boarding an air flight, 12 this month. We have clarified the policy of eliminating it from the day. In other words, if you are traveling from tomorrow, you can enter the country without bringing a negative certificate.
Of course, the Northern Mariana Islands are also in the United States, so you can enter the country without submitting a negative certificate upon arrival. In addition, the hurdle for traveling one step has been lowered.
On the other hand, the CDC will continue to verify the infection status for the next three months, and if there is a need for a new mutant strain to appear, it may be required to submit a negative proof again, which is a mitigation.

You will still need your vaccination certificate, so be careful not to make a mistake!
