18-Oct-2021: "C.D.C. travel recommendations continue to differ for those who are fully vaccinated and those who aren’t. [...] They also don’t need a pretest before departing from the United States, though one still may be required by the destination." - [www.NYTimes.com] .
CDC Travel Health: "Fully vaccinated against Covid-19 & planning international travel? You do NOT need to get tested before leaving the U.S. unless your destination requires it." - [Twitter.com] , [wwwnc.CDC.gov] .

Do you need to have a negative Covid-19 test to be allowed to leave the United States as a foreign citizen? I am fully vaccinated and will travel with a proof of vaccination and a negative test (72h) to show up at customs upon arrival in the US.
Thanks in advance!

There are no rules of test or vaccine in order to leave USA for travel abroad, or for using domestic flights. Still, at check-in you state you do not have fever or covid-19, you are not supposed to fly if you are covid-19 positive.

My sister and her husband left Vancouver at 4am this morning to drive down to their place in Scottsdale, where they haven't been in almost 2 years now. She said it took 15 minutes to go through the border.
One thing the Canadian govt. is still requiring is proof of a negative covid test done within 72 hours prior to crossing the border back into Canada and tests can be a couple hundred dollars so that's still a deterrent for people.

The PCR test is complex and expensive, involving high level of protection, lab works, paper works etc. It will always cost $100 - $150. Good news are you do not travel every day.
I have been on the tour for three months, and I have done just two PCS tests, just one of them really needed, the other one was more of a backup for the first LA show. So compared to total travel cost, Covid-19 PCR testing is to be ignored.
