ATTACHMENT A
PASSENGER DISCLOSURE AND ATTESTATION
TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
All airlines or other aircraft operators covered by the Order must provide the following
disclosure to their passengers and collect the attestation prior to embarkation.
AIRLINE AND AIRCRAFT OPERATOR DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENT:
As required by United States federal law, all airlines or other aircraft operators must confirm either
a negative COVID-19 test result or recovery from COVID-19 and clearance to travel and collect
a passenger attestation on behalf of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
for certain passengers on aircraft departing from a foreign country and arriving in the United States.
Each individual 2 years of age or older must provide a separate attestation. Unless otherwise
permitted by law, a parent or other authorized individual should attest on behalf of a passenger
aged 2 to 17 years. An individual may attest on behalf of another passenger for whom the
individual is authorized to submit the required information (for example, immediate family
member(s), legal guardian, or travel agent), if that person is unable to attest on his or her own
behalf (e.g., because of physical or mental impairment).
The information provided must be accurate and complete to the best of the individual’s knowledge.
Under United States federal law, each passenger must provide this attestation. Failure to provide
this attestation, or submitting false or misleading information, could result in delay of travel, denial
of boarding, denial of boarding on future travel, or put the passenger or other individuals at risk of
harm, including serious bodily injury or death. Any passenger who fails to comply with these
requirements may be subject to criminal penalties under, among others, 42 U.S.C. § 271 and 42
C.F.R. § 71.2, in conjunction with 18 U.S.C. §§ 3559 and 3571. Willfully providing false or
misleading information may lead to criminal fines and imprisonment under, among others, 18
U.S.C. § 1001. Providing this information can help protect you, your friends and family, your
communities, and the United States. CDC appreciates your cooperation.
PASSENGER ATTESTATION REQUIREMENT:
I [name of passenger or authorized representative] have read the disclosure pertaining to my
obligation to obtain a negative pre-departure test result for COVID-19 or to having recovered from
COVID-19 after previous SARS-CoV-2 infection and being cleared to travel in order to board an
aircraft departing from a foreign country and arriving in the United States.
