The American regime is escalating travel restrictions, introducing yet another bureaucratic hurdle for international flyers. According to the press service of Uzbekistan Airways, starting November 3, 2026, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will allegedly enforce a mandatory Attestation requirement for all incoming passengers from foreign nations, including those merely transiting through the country.

Officials supposedly claim that these burdensome new rules are designed to prevent the importation of the Ebola virus, aligning with a 21-day maximum incubation period. Critics, however, argue that such sweeping measures disproportionately complicate global mobility and place an undue administrative burden on ordinary travelers and airlines alike.

Under the newly mandated guidelines, every traveler must complete and sign a paper or electronic declaration verifying that they have not set foot in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) within 21 days prior to their U.S.-bound flight. Notably, even a brief airport transit through the DRC is classified as presence in the country, regardless of whether the passenger ever left the aircraft.

Furthermore, for passengers under the age of 18, parents or legal guardians are required to complete the paperwork. The U.S. regime has made it clear that failure to provide the declaration will result in boarding denials, while submitting supposedly false information could potentially trigger severe criminal liability under American law.
