For this year 2021, American passport holders have seen an ever changing list of international travel options as the globe adapted first to vaccines and then now to the Delta Variants of the covid 19 virus.
Where
can Americans travel with vaccine? As of the end of September, the total number of U.S. cases is
around the 42.3 million mark, since the first coronavirus case in the country.
Some countries are overwhelmed by corona cases, as well as some American
states.
It is up to you to decide
whether if traveling internationally is a good idea. The health risks are
evident if you have not received the full dose of the covid 19 vaccine. Your
destination might change its rules at any time. You may be forced to follow
strict rules and regulations put in place by the country to fight the virus-
wearing masks, social distancing, sanitizing, and curfews. And violations could
lead to heftier fines and even jail.
Where
can Americans travel with vaccine? If you want some expert advice before finalizing your decision,
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and US Department provides
detailed, updated, and accurate covid 19 risk assessments by nation. Both sites
rate most countries open to American travelers at level 4. Remember that all
flying passengers age two and older must show proof of viral covid 19 negative
results test taken three days before departure to enter the U.S.

Nations were recently removed from the open list.
What follows are countries that have been allowing Americans to enter but have closed again or we have removed from the open list for some reasons:
Sweden: American travelers cannot
enter Sweden directly but can go via another European country.
Bulgaria: current rules set by the
governments’ nation make direct visits difficult.
Ethiopia: This cultural country remains
in the removed nations because of the ongoing warfare.
Cambodia: The U.S. embassy reports that the Southeast Asian nation has stopped issuing tourist visas. You can visit the country for business or apply for business linked business.
