The United States extends restrictions on non-essential travel at the US-Mexico border until April 21

To prevent the further spread of COVID-19, and in coordination with our partners in Canada and Mexico, the United States is extending the restrictions on non-essential travel at our land borders through April 21, while ensuring continued flows of essential trade and travel. Informed by science and public health guidance, we will work with our counterparts to identify an approach to easing restrictions when conditions permit and with the protection of our citizens from COVID-19 at the forefront of our minds.

Edgar Ramírez, DHS representative at the United States Embassy in Mexico, added that “although the vaccination campaigns give us hope that the COVID-19 epidemic could begin to be controlled, we cannot lower our guard yet.”
