New Brunswickers can also show proof of vaccination by using the MyHealthNB portal. Those who have been vaccinated outside the province may provide proof of vaccination from that jurisdiction.
The province is also developing an option to show a QR code for proof of vaccination that can be displayed on a phone. It is expected to be available in about a month.
Travel to New Brunswick
In addition, anyone entering New Brunswick after Sept. 21 must register their travel through the New Brunswick Travel Registration Program.
This includes New Brunswickers who are returning after travelling outside the province.
Residents of Campobello Island who are travelling back and forth to mainland New Brunswick are also required to register their travel. Regardless of their vaccination status, they need not self-isolate.
When registering, travellers must upload proof of vaccination. People who are not fully vaccinated must isolate for 14 days. They can stop isolating if they receive a negative COVID-19 test after day 10. The province says the registration is not yet in effect, but the system will be active by Tuesday, Sept. 21.
