Flying to USA this week from UK (US Citizen) and unlike previous trips, I've since had Covid and have proof I had Covid through the NHS pass. Would this be sufficient to provide instead of the Covid test? The CDC guidance is either an official test or document of recovery but I can find very little online about people's experiences of using a document of recovery and furthermore whether the NHS pass outlining my previous positive test back in early July would be sufficient?
Thanks for any guidance
Here's what the CDC says is required for documentation...sounds like a letter from your doctor plus your NHS test results would suffice...
What kind of documentation of my test result or documentation of recovery do I need to present?
...
If you are traveling with documentation of recovery, you must present paper or electronic copies of your positive test result (dated no more than 90 days ago) and a signed letter, on official letterhead that contains the name, address, and phone number of a licensed healthcare provider or public health official, stating that you have been cleared to end isolation and therefore can travel. A letter that states that you have been cleared to end isolation to return to work or school is also acceptable. The letter does not have to specifically mention travel.
