People who are fully vaccinated and are two weeks beyond their final dose can travel without quarantining afterward if they are within six months of getting their final dose and stay asymptomatic after traveling. People who have recovered from COVID-19 can travel without quarantine if they are within six months after their infection, have documented evidence of their infection and have remained asymptomatic after travel.
