How to Manage Business Travel during Covid-19?
Multiple countries throughout the world have implemented strict lockdown to reduce the impact of COVID-19, during such times businesses have found innovative ways to connect with customers and associates. However, business travel leads to economic growth. As employees start to travel more frequently for business reasons, they have to follow the travel guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to reduce the spread of COVID-19 infections. The CDC recommends that all domestic travellers get a Covid-19 test one to three days before travel. While not mandatory, it is good to check travel restrictions before departing.

You may think “Oh I am vaccinated” but that will not always exempt one from quarantine restrictions. However, the proof of a negative test before departure, along with proof of another negative test once you are at your destination, may shorten quarantine requirements. Vaccine passports will help in essential business travel during COVID but will pave the way for people to travel for years to come.

What are the COVID guidelines for International and Domestic passengers?
Almost all destinations require a negative RTPCR test, usually from within 48 – 72 hours before travel. However, not all labs can deliver results within that time frame, especially if the number of coronavirus cases has increased in the area. It is best to call ahead to get an estimate to know how long the results may take.
Antibody tests and rapid antigen tests are not accepted during travel. But rapid PCR tests (sometimes called RT-PCR tests) are commonly acceptable for travel. You can read FAQ’s about RTPCR test
