Restrictions on International Travel Due to Coronavirus (COVID-19)

Concerns over the spread of COVID-19 are significantly impacting individuals’ ability to travel internationally because of recent physical presence (not nationality) in countries significantly impacted by the virus. President Trump issued a Proclamation on March 11 that suspends entry of immigrants and nonimmigrants into the United States who were physically present within the Schengen Area during the 14-day period preceding their attempted entry into the United States. For purposes of the March 11 Proclamation, the Schengen Area comprises 26 European states: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.
