    Hi, can you give me some information about portugal? Am I allowed in the US? Is my bf allowed in Portugal? We have been apart for 8 months now 🙁

    • Kashlee Kucheran

      Hi Bibi
      US residents are not permitted into Portugal at this time.
      Portuguese residents are equally banned from travelling to the USA, but some EU residents have been getting into the USA if they have a valid ESTA and they spend 14 days in a non-banned country, like Mexico for example. However, this is ‘loophole’ could change at any time, and does NOT guarantee entry at all! You should email US border police and ask them if spending 14 days first in a place like mexico will permit you entry.
      Or, you could meet him in a location on this list.
      Good luck!

    You’re my biggest hero for updating this list all year — i wish there were more countries to visit – but you’ve been the singular resource for info — so well done! Thank you

    Hi Kashlee and Trevor,

    Thanks for all your hard work. I have used your guys’ lists as a starting point for travel. Good job.

    Just want to say that I have had no problems in Turkey. Getting in to Istanbul was a breeze and traveling (by air or bus) through the country is about the same.

    As for the person who ranted about irresponsible travelers, wear a mask, keep your distance, wash your hands. Everyone in Turkey wears a mask in public and there are hand sanitizers everywhere. I feel way safer here than in the States. RIP USA.

      Thanks so much Jonny and we are so glad you were able to get into Turkey without issues and are enjoying your time there 🙂

    Traveling from Maui Hawaii to Portugal, after spending 14 days in Mexico or any other countries allowed to enter from into Portugal.? Do any loopholes exist for getting into Portugal like we have for Italy, going through Croatia. Do we have any information as to when it might open to the US?

    Is it possible to travel to Italy after self isolating in the UK for 14 days?

    A good article and great follow up. A couple notes on entering Croatia based on our experience in August-September 2020. You have to register with the government at (link). Also, you can enter Croatia with a negative PCR older than 48 hrs. Croatia will accept an older tests if you take an addition PCR test upon arrival at your cost. It cost us $500. Here are testing locations (link). You have to self quarantine until you get the results. Unlike the US, Croatia has figured out how to produce test results on 20 hrs. A word of caution on their PCR, it is not the self administered CVS test. Be prepared to have the back of your brain swabbed! Croatia is a magical place where life is nearly normal. Enjoy!
