Canada is removing some of the border measures instituted during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Starting April 25th, unvaccinated or partially vaccinated children aged 5-11 travelling with a vaccinated parent, step-parent, guardian or tutor will no longer be required to complete a pre-entry COVID-19 test for entry to Canada.
A pre-entry COVID-19 test is still required for entry to Canada for partially vaccinated or unvaccinated travellers 12 and older who are currently eligible to travel to Canada.
The federal government is also removing the requirement of a quarantine plan for all fully vaccinated travellers, children aged 5-11 who are accompanied by a fully vaccinated parent, step-parent, guardian, or tutor and travellers with a medical contraindication to a COVID-19 vaccine to the country starting April 25th.
Fully vaccinated travellers arriving in Canada on or after April 25, 2022, also are not required to wear masks while in public spaces, monitor and report if they develop signs or symptoms, quarantine if another traveller in the same travel group exhibits signs or symptoms or tests positive and maintain a list of close contacts and locations visited following the first 14 days after arrival.
All travellers are still required to use ArriveCAN to provide mandatory travel information within 72 hours of their arrival to Canada and/or before boarding a plane or cruise ship destined for Canada. Travellers who arrive without completing their ArriveCAN submission may have to test on arrival and quarantine for 14 days, regardless of their vaccination status.
