International and CruiseTravel: Travelers/visitors to AND residents of NH need to self-quarantine for 10 days after the last date of any international travel or travel on a cruise ship.
People returning to NH after international travel, or travel on a cruise ship, have the option of ending their quarantine after day 7 (beginning of day 8 after travel) by getting a test on day 6-7 of their quarantine to test for active SARS-CoV-2 infection (SARS-CoV-2 is the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19);
this test must be a molecular test (e.g., PCR-based test); antigen tests are not accepted for this purpose.
If the specimen is obtained on day 6-7 of quarantine, the person is asymptomatic, and the test is negative, then the person can end their quarantine after 7 days, but they must still self-observe for symptoms of COVID-19 and strictly adhere to COVID-19 mitigation measures (social distancing, avoiding social and group gatherings, wearing a well-fitted face mask when around other people, practicing frequent hand hygiene, etc.).
Any new symptoms of COVID-19 should prompt the person to isolate and seek testing, even if the person recently tested out of quarantine. This 7-day quarantine “test out” option ONLY applies to travel-related quarantine (not quarantine due to a close contact exposure to a person with COVID-19).
Exceptions to Travel Quarantine
The following people do NOT need to quarantine after high-risk travel:
1. Persons who are 14 days beyond the second dose of their COVID-19 vaccine (i.e., 14 days after full vaccination).
2. Persons who are within 90 days of a prior SARS-CoV-2 infection that was diagnosed by PCR or antigen testing (if a person had a previous infection that was more than 90 days prior, then they are still subject to travel quarantine).
Such persons, however, still need to monitor themselves for symptoms of COVID-19 daily, practice social distancing, avoid social and other group gatherings, always wear a face mask when around other people, and practice good hand hygiene at all times.
