Hi all,

I am finally able to get back to New Zealand to visit my family. I have been looking on the CDC website and I don't see anything definitive about if travel from NZ is banned or not right now? I know they're in Level 4/Red - Do Not Travel status with their case rate being insane. I am wanting to go back at the end of my semester in May, so not right now while Omicron is peaking. Before I book my tickets I wanted to make sure that I will be able to get back home at the end of my visit. I am an LPR that is fully vaccinated, boostered and will do any and all of the testing required for both directions. 

Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks!

The US has not banned travel to any country.

 

You could go via Russia

That's what I thought. Hearing that from others makes me feel better about it though. Thanks for the reassurance!

US citizens and legal residents have never been prevented from returning to the US.  Just get the required test.

You'll have to check on the requirements from the NZ side.  SIL said they are locked down in the north again, so you may have some quarantine rules to contend with. 

 

Lovely moving target this covid is!
