Travelers who arrive without completing their ArriveCAN submission may have to test on arrival and quarantine for 14 days, regardless of their vaccination status. Travelers taking a cruise or a plane must submit their information in ArriveCAN within 72 hours before boarding.
Beginning February 28, 2022, testing for arriving vaccinated travelers will be reverting to random border testing
- If a vaccinated traveler is selected for random testing, the traveler is not required to quarantine while awaiting test results
Restrictions will be lifted for kids under 12 when travelling internationally with fully vaccinated adult travelers
