Travel to US from UK via Portugal – recently recovered from Covid

score:3

Accepted answer

The CDC, at the website you link above, gives the format for the required proof of recovery if relevant:

A letter from your healthcare provider or a public health official that clears you to travel, must have information that identifies you personally (e.g., name and date of birth) that matches the personal identifiers on your passport or other travel documents. The letter must be signed and dated on official letterhead that contains the name, address, and phone number of the healthcare provider or public health official who signed the letter.

A QR code in an app does not meet these requirements. You can either seek a letter from your healthcare provider that does meet these requirements, or get a negative rapid antigen test on the day of travel or the day before you travel to the United States (March 22nd or 23rd in your case) and show that instead.

Getting this test at the Lisbon airport may be an option for you if you do not have any other way to do so. The provider at Lisbon airport charges "only" €21 for TAP passengers and €25 for other passengers for an antigen test, which is not as bad of a markup as many other airport test providers around the world.
