- You must get a viral test no more than 1 day before the flight’s departure from a foreign country and show a copy of your negative test result.
- If you had a positive viral test on a sample collected during the past 90 days, and you met the criteria to end isolation, you may travel instead with your positive viral test result and a signed letter from a healthcare provider or a public health official that states you have been cleared for travel. The positive test result and letter together are referred to as “documentation of recovery.”
- You will also be required to confirm that the information you present is true in the form of an attestation.
- These requirements do not apply to children under 2 years of age.
For more information on which types of test are acceptable, what information must be included on the test result, and additional FAQs, visit CDC’s webpage Requirement for Proof of Negative COVID-19 Test or Recovery from COVID-19.

- Vaccinations – The Johnson and Johnson vaccine is available in Terminal B at Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU).
- Screenings – The Puerto Rico National Guard assists with enhanced health screenings of all arriving passengers at each airport on the Island… All arriving travelers at the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan will be pre-screened via thermographic cameras to monitor temperatures, and enhanced protocols take place at baggage claim before exiting the airport.
- COVID-19 Testing – For passengers who are not vaccinated or traveling internationally, the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU) offers PCR molecular COVID-19 tests on site. The service costs $110 USD and is offered from 6:00 am to 8:00 pm, seven days a week, at three test collection centers located at terminals A, B, and C. More information is available here.

Masks are required in all indoor spaces, regardless of vaccination status. In addition, mask usage is a federal law on airplanes and in airports. Those not vaccinated or between the ages of 2 and 11 must also wear masks in public areas when unable to social distance. Face masks are required in outdoor spaces when there are 50 people or more in the same area. Masks are still recommended in crowded urban areas and in private meetings of up to 20 fully vaccinated individuals.
