Question about testing/vaccine for under 12

[Anna Chassereau]

My family and I are visiting July 2022. It will be myself, my husband and 10 year old son. Has anyone seen an update about kids being able to skip pre travel Covid testing if they’re vaccinated now that the vaccine is available for under 12?

The Safe Travels site has been consistently terrible when it comes to clearly articulating what parents are supposed to do with children, but yes. A fully vaccinated child can skip testing and quarantine. You still register them under your own Safe Travels account. I'll grab some screenshots.

"Any traveler who is fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in the United States or U.S. Territories will be eligible for the quarantine exception. This means two shots of Pfizer or Moderna vaccine or one dose of Johnson and Johnson plus 14 days after the last dose."

Thanks for the information. Kids under 5 don't need to do the testing or be vaccinated either.
