Or they must provide documentation of having recently recovered from Covid-19.
The one-day window for testing applies to all international arrivals, including US citizens.
Las Vegas, as well as the rest of Nevada, doesn’t have any testing or vaccination requirements on domestic travelers arriving for a vacation from within the US or its territories.

What can visitors expect?
The state of Nevada lifted its indoor mask mandate on February 10.
In a news conference, Gov. Steve Sisolak said, “Now is the appropriate time for me to announce that Nevada will rescind our mask mandate, effective immediately.”
Sisolak said the state was better equipped to fight the pandemic, citing at-home testing kits and the decrease in overall cases and hospitalizations in the state.
