According to the Canada Border Services Agency, starting Monday, fully vaccinated travelers, arriving by land or air, who are eligible to enter Canada and who comply with specific criteria will not be required to quarantine or complete a day-8 test. In addition, fully vaccinated travelers arriving by air will not be required to stay at a government-authorized accommodation (GAA) to await their on-arrival test result.

These changes are only applicable to fully vaccinated travelers who are currently eligible to enter Canada. This means those who enter by right such as Canadian citizens, permanent residents and persons registered under the Indian Act, as well as foreign nationals who are eligible for entry.

Fully vaccinated travelers must submit their mandatory information including their digital proof of vaccination in English or French using ArriveCAN.

There are no changes for travelers who are not fully vaccinated. They are still subject to the mandatory 3-day stay at a GAA (air mode), a 14-day quarantine, all testing requirements and the mandatory submission of information via ArriveCAN before arriving in Canada.

Tourism to Canada continues to be prohibited
