Hi, My Brother in-law is working and living in Oman (Muscat) and he has valid B1/B2 visa on his Indian Passport. He also got 2 doses of vaccination and can get the PCR 72 hrs before the travel. Can he travel to USA now? Is he allowed to enter in the country? Please advise and this would be a great help.

Thanks.

Yes. A foreigner on visitor visa has always been able to visit the US, as long as they they arrive by air, have not been physically present in (and do not transit through) Mainland China, Iran, the Schengen Area, the UK, Ireland, Brazil, South Africa, or India in the last 14 days, and get a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of boarding the flight.
