More Clarifications of the Travel to Alaska COVID-19 Requirements


In Health Mandate 10.1, the State of Alaska published additional clarifications of the COVID-19 requirements for travel to Alaska. These requirements became effective on August 11, 2020. Here is a summary that applies to travelers to Alaska who are not Alaska residents and not traveling as Critical infrastructure employees.

Travel to Alaska COVID-19 Requirements “In a Nutshell”:

Do not travel to Alaska if you have tested positive for COVID-19 and have not subsequently been cleared for travel. Unless you want to be tested at your arrival airport (Cost $250), get tested for COVID-19 within 72 hours before your departure to Alaska and upload or bring with you the negative test results, or, if the results are not yet available, proof you were tested. Complete the Alaska Travel Declaration Form and the Self-Isolation Plan (forms available at www.alaska.covidsecureapp.com).

If you arrive in Alaska without a 72-hour negative test result, self-quarantine until negative results are obtained. If you arrive by air without getting a 72-hour test, get tested at the airport ($250) and self-quarantine until negative test results are obtained.

After arriving in Alaska and having proof of negative test results (either from pre-travel or from after-arrival testing), practice social distancing until you leave Alaska or for up to 14 days, or until you get a second negative test result that was taken between 7 to 14 days after your arrival. Practicing Social Distancing includes wearing a mask and staying 6-feet from anyone not in your household when you are in outdoor public spaces; and not entering restaurants, bars, gyms, community centers, sporting facilities, office buildings, school or daycare facilities. Do not participate in Group activities.
