References (a) and (b) announced a new global authorized departure effective 10 September 2020 to 9 October 2020. In line with reference (c), this NAVADMIN announces an authorized departure extension from 10 October 2020 to 9 December 2020. 2. This NAVADMIN applies to those Department of Defense (DoD) eligible family members (EFM) and civilian employees who are currently at their safe haven location. DoD EFMs and civilian employees who did not have travel orders approved prior to 7 May 2020, are not permitted an authorized departure extension under reference (c). 3. All associated guidance for safe haven extensions described in reference (d) remain in effect at the termination of the authorized departure extension on 9 December 2020. Requests for extension of safe haven allowances beyond 9 December 2020 may be submitted to OPNAV N130 via email at nxag_n130c(at)navy.mil. 4. In line with reference (c), Safe Haven allowances for DoD EFMs and civilian employees will be reduced to 50 percent of the maximum allowable rate from 10 October 2020 through 8 November 2020, and to 25 percent of the maximum allowable rate from 9 November 2020 through 8 December 2020. 5. The Department of State (DOS) announced in reference (e) that, unless terminated earlier, the authorized departure for individuals at higher risk from COVID-19 (Global Authorized Departure) will terminate on an individual country basis after that country has ended phase 3 of its Diplomacy Strong Framework. DoD EFMs and civilian employees are required to return to their permanent duty station (PDS) when DOS terminates the global authorized departure for the country in which they are assigned. Once the global authorized departure terminates for a given country or individuals are otherwise authorized to return voluntarily, DoD EFMs are authorized safe haven allowances for a grace period of up to 10 days, if necessary, for individuals to make arrangements to return to their PDS. The DOS phase tracker can found at MyNavy Portal https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/don-covid- 19-travel-tracker. This website requires a Common Access Card (CAC) to login unless the Service Member has previously set up a CAC-free account on MyNavy Portal. This list should be checked frequently, as NAVADMINs will not be released every time a country ends phase 3. 6. DoD EFMs and civilian employees may return to their PDS prior to the termination of the evacuation if the individual meets the requirements contained in reference (f) located at https://media.defense.gov/2020/Aug/06/2002472408/-1/-1/1/FHP- GUIDANCE-SUPPLEMENT-12.PDF as well as the requirements below. a.
