Canada removed COVID-19 border and travel measures

 Effective October 1, 2022 Canada removed all COVID-19 entry restrictions, as well as testing, quarantine, and isolation requirements for anyone entering the country. 

Effective October 1, 2022, all travelers, regardless of citizenship, will no longer have to:

  - submit public health information through the ArriveCAN app or website;

  - provide proof of vaccination;

  - undergo pre- or on-arrival testing;


  - carry out COVID-19-related quarantine or isolation;

  - monitor and report if they develop signs or symptoms of COVID-19 upon arriving to Canada.

Although the masking requirement is being lifted, all travellers are strongly recommended to wear high quality and well-fitted masks during their journeys.

Cruise measures are also being lifted, and travellers will no longer be required to have pre-board tests, be vaccinated, or use ArriveCAN. A set of guidelines will remain to protect passengers and crew, which will align with the approach used in the United States.
