Privacy Act Statement for Air Passengers from People’s Republic of China Relating to the Requirement to Provide Proof of a Negative COVID-19 Test Result or Documentation of Recovery

The U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requires airlines and other aircraft operators to collect this information pursuant to 42 C.F.R. 71.20 and 71.31(b), as authorized by 42 U.S.C. § 264. Providing this information is mandatory for all passengers 2 years and older boarding an aircraft into the United States from the People’s Republic of China, or from Designated Airports if they have been in the People’s Republic of China in the last 10 days. Failure to provide this information may prevent you from boarding the plane. Additionally, passengers will be required to attest to providing complete and accurate information, and failure to do so may lead to other consequences, including criminal penalties. CDC will use this information to help prevent the introduction, transmission, and spread of communicable diseases.

The Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. § 552a, governs the collection and use of this information about citizens of the United States and aliens lawfully admitted for permanent residence. The information maintained by CDC will be covered by CDC’s System of Records No. 09-20-0171, Quarantine- and Traveler-Related Activities, Including Records for Contact Tracing Investigation and Notification under 42 C.F.R. Parts 70 and 71. See 72 Fed. Reg. 70867 (Dec. 13, 2007), as amended by 76 Fed. Reg. 4485 (Jan. 25, 2011) and 83 Fed. Reg. 6591 (Feb. 14, 2018). CDC will only disclose information from the system outside the CDC and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services as the Privacy Act permits, including in accordance with the routine uses published for this system in the Federal Register, and as authorized by law. Such lawful purposes may include, but are not limited to, sharing identifiable information with state and local public health departments, and other cooperating authorities. CDC and cooperating authorities will retain, use, delete, or otherwise destroy the designated information in accordance with federal law and the System of Records Notice (SORN) set forth above. You may contact the system manager at [email protected] or by mailing Policy Office, Division of Global Migration and Quarantine, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton Road NE, MS H16-4, Atlanta, GA 30329, if you have questions about CDC’s use of your data.

1 This requirement (i.e., proof of negative COVID-19 test or recovery) does not apply to crewmembers of airlines or other aircraft operators on official duty assigned by the airline or aircraft operator that involves operation of the aircraft or repositioning of crew (i.e., on “deadhead” status), provided their assignment is under an air carrier’s or operator’s occupational health and safety program that follows applicable industry standard protocols for the prevention of COVID-19 consistent with relevant CDC guidance. See the Order and CDC’s website for more information about applicability and exceptions.

2 People’s Republic of China includes the Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau.

3 This attestation does not need to be completed by or on behalf of children under 2 years of age. The airline or other aircraft operator may permit them to board an aircraft without an attestation.

4 This Order applies to any passenger 2 years of age or older, regardless of citizenship or vaccination status.

5 People’s Republic of China includes the Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau.

6 This requirement excludes persons transiting through an airport in the People’s Republic of China en route to the United States from another country. This Order also excludes persons who have been in the People’s Republic of China for less than 24 hours.


Public reporting burden of this collection of information is estimated to average 2 hours per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. Comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, may be submitted to CDC/ATSDR Reports Clearance Officer, 1600 Clifton Road NE, MS D-74, Atlanta, Georgia 30333; ATTN: PRA 0920-XXXX.
