Fully vaccinated travellers may be selected for mandatory randomized arrival testing. You must quarantine in a suitable place until you receive a negative test result. You may take public transportation and connecting flights to your place of quarantine.

For more information, please visit the Government of Canada’s website.

Regardless of vaccination status, you will need to show proof of a negative COVID-19 test at the time of departure to Canada. Airline staff will be verifying your paperwork at the time of boarding.

Unvaccinated travellers with right of entry to Canada will be tested on arrival and day 8 and must quarantine for 14 days. Mandatory randomized testing of vaccinated travellers is being increased at Pearson and we continue working together with our government partners with the objective of testing 100% of vaccinated travellers upon arrival. Until then, vaccinated travellers should be prepared to be selected for testing upon arrival. Pre-register for your on-arrival COVID-19 test with SwitchHealth to avoid the registration line at Pearson. You can do so by visiting switchhealth.ca.

We recommend you reference the latest information on the Government of Canada website.

Canadian residents, students and temporary foreign workers, among others, are allowed to enter Canada. All fully vaccinated foreign nationals are also allowed to enter Canada. Use the Government of Canada’s website to confirm if you can enter Canada.

If you are partially vaccinated or unvaccinated, you must quarantine for 14 days. Learn whether you need to quarantine on travel.gc.ca.

If you are fully vaccinated, meet the requirements and have travelled outside of Canada or the United States, you will not need to quarantine for 14 days; however, you must still provide a quarantine plan and be prepared to quarantine, in case it is determined at the border that you do not meet the necessary requirements. Fully vaccinated travellers selected for arrival testing will be required to quarantine while they await the results of their arrival test. Learn more at canada.ca.
