a close up of a passport

March 14 Update: The USA has initiated a ban for 30 days, which restricts any non residents from entering the USA if they’ve been in the Schengen Zone of the EU, or the United Kingdom and Ireland within 14 days of desired entry to the USA.

India has also suspended all visas for foreign visitors – aka you can’t travel. 

Isn’t that country instituting rules that if you visited that other country within the last 14 days you can’t enter? It’s always just best to know for sure. And here’s everything you need to know, from the official resource, the IATA.

Coronavirus is a very fluid situation, causing panic and pandemonium around the world, however warranted it may be, and airlines are struggling as fear overrides all other thoughts. People are avoiding travel to destinations without accurate pictures of what’s happening on the ground.

The International Air Transport Association, aka IATA, has published the entire list of entry restrictions and exceptions, country by country, which offers the very latest travel updates from each country on who can, and cannot come in.

Basically, unless you’ve been to China, Iran or Korea in the last 14 days or were stuck on a Diamond Princess Cruise ship, things look pretty good, but this will tell you for sure. The list explains tcurrent entry restrictions for every country and does not tell you whether you should or should not travel, just what would make you eligible or ineligible, if you choose to. In alphabetical order…

  1. Super useful and helpful to aggregate this, thank you!

    I didn’t see a listing for Greece, does that mean no current restrictions??

  2. Yes helpful but some of the info is pretty old. I live in Trinidad and Tobago and they have updated their restrictions to include those who reside (or have transited/visited) to more nations – Singapore, Iran, Italy, Japan, etc

    1. All the information is as up to date as the official IATA resource in the hands of people working at airlines. If the policy has been updated in the last 24 hours, it’ll likely be updated tomorrow and appear here then.
