What's the procedure for going to America now?

Summer is coming, and a group of new international students will be welcomed. If you are still inquiring about what preparations you need to make to go to the United States, I have prepared a list of all four stages for you: early stage, before taking off, before arriving at the airport, and before landing:

What's the procedure for going to America now-

Request to go to America

1, travel documents, such as passport/visa, green card, etc. ;

2. COVID-19 test report within1day (more than 2 years);

3. Vaccination certificate (18 years old or older), except for exempted personnel;

4. Don't have a history of living in a specific country, except those with limited exemptions.

First, the materials needed in the early stage

1 Passport is valid for at least 6 months.

2 US citizen green card/visa

Chinese and English vaccine report form: just search for "International Health Code for Epidemic Prevention" in the applet and fill in the application.

4 air tickets: be sure to buy air tickets in advance. If you buy a non-connecting flight, pay attention to the transfer time and direct baggage hanging.

Protective equipment: mask+cleaning spray, the spray shall not exceed 100ml.

Second, before going out

1, complete vaccination (full dose of designated vaccine+14 days);

2, 65438+ 0 days before the flight to the United States, nucleic acid or antigen test and get a negative report, or provide a compliant COVID-19 rehabilitation certificate+a doctor's certificate that you can travel;

3. The contact information of passengers generally requires the address in the United States;

4. Passport is valid for at least 6 months;

5. Valid entry documents (such as visas and travel documents);

6.EVUS is valid at the time of entry (only applicable to the sign B 10//b2 of/kloc-0).

Third, preparation before takeoff

1, nucleic acid test report: valid within 72 hours before take-off, bilingual, stamped with a red stamp.

2.EVUS: only applicable to B1B2 in 10. The validity period is generally 2 years. If it is out of date, it needs to be updated and printed.

3. Air ticket travel itinerary: electronic Chinese and English versions are enough. If you have a return ticket, please prepare it together.

4. Letters to Customs: Letters to US Customs can be prepared in advance for friends with poor English.

5. CDC attitude: fill in and print two signatures, one for the airline? Copy for inspection when staying in the United States.

Step 4 arrive at the airport

1, arrive at the airport early: it's very important! It is recommended to arrive about 3 hours in advance, because the check-in needs to check all kinds of information one by one, and the progress is much slower than before.

2. Customs declaration code: generate a QR code in the small program customs fingertip service (valid within 24 hours).

Five, after landing

1. Make full preparations before landing: the immigration clearance time in the United States is notoriously long. Remember to drink water/go to the toilet in advance.

2. Introduction: If your English is not good, please take out a letter of introduction to America. Don't let CBP think that you are willing to stay in America for a long time.
