In order to control the introduction, transmission, and spread of communicable diseases, such as COVID-19, into the United States, the collection of traveler contact information helps ensure that CDC and state and local health authorities are able to identify and locate persons arriving in, or transmitting through, the United States from a foreign country who may have been exposed to a communicable disease abroad. State, local, and territorial public health departments can use this information to connect with travelers who arrive in their jurisdictions infectious with or exposed to a communicable disease in order to monitor travelers for symptoms as needed.
On October 25, 2021, CDC announced an Order titled Requirement for Airlines and Operators to Collect Contact Information for All Passengers Arriving into the United States. This Order requires airlines and other aircraft operators to collect contact information for passengers before their arrival into the United States from a foreign country, retain the information for 30 days, and transmit the information to CDC upon request. The purpose of collecting this information is to identify and locate passengers who may have been exposed to a person with a communicable disease, such as COVID-19, for public health follow-up. This Order is effective at 12:01 EST on November 8, 2021.
