Inside Bulgaria's Easter Celebrations: Traditions Passed Through Generations
Today marks the joyous celebration of Easter, one of the most significant holidays in the Orthodox Christian calendar.
As of December 6, all citizens, regardless of their vaccination status, arriving in the United States by air must submit a negative NAA test (including PCR) or antigen test to the airline within 24 hours prior to boarding, announced the press center of the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
According to our embassy in Washington, children under the age of 2 are exempt from this requirement, as well as citizens who have suffered from COVID-19 in the last 90 days. The disease needs to be proven at the same time as presenting two documents: a positive result from a COVID-19 test done up to 90 days before the trip, and a cure document from a medical institution or a doctor with a date and signature, the ministry said.
Another requirement for those arriving by air in the United States is to complete and submit a sample form.
The Ministry reminds that citizens arriving by air in the USA are obliged to present to the airline a proof of completed vaccination against COVID-19 with a vaccine or approved for permanent or emergency use by the US Food and Drug Administration or the World Health Organization. .
Details of the measures upon entry into the United States can be found on the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the section "Coronavirus - how to travel", as well as at https://www.mfa.bg/bg/situationcenter/32094
