As of November 30, travelers aged 12 years plus four months and older are required to be fully vaccinated to travel within and from Canada. At this time a valid COVID-19 test is no longer accepted as an alternative to vaccination unless travelers are eligible for one of the limited exemptions such as a medical inability to be vaccinated. For a list of the limited exemptions please visit https://travel.gc.ca/travel-covid/travel-restrictions/domestic-travel#exceptions. 

Unvaccinated or partially vaccinated foreign nationals who are in Canada can do so until February 28, 2022. Under Transport Canada’s Interim Order, unvaccinated foreign nationals are allowed to board an international outbound flight, or a domestic flight(s) that will bring them to the airport to board their international outbound flight, so long as they can demonstrate the following evidence at the time of boarding: (1) a travel itinerary or boarding pass that shows that they are boarding a flight to another country or to another airport in Canada that will allow them to catch their international outbound flight; (2) their valid passport or other travel documents issued by another country, and (3) proof of a valid COVID-19 test result as outlined at section 13(1) (a) and (b) of the Interim Order. The applicable sections of the Interim Order are 17.3(2)(c) and 17.12(3)(a) and (b).  

  • After February 28, 2022, foreign nationals will need to be fully vaccinated to board a flight or train to depart Canada.

Testing and Quarantine

Any traveler who does not meet the definition below is subject to testing on arrival. A traveler who meets the definition of fully vaccinated is subject to Random Mandatory Testing on arrival and may have to register in advance for arrival testing. If selected for testing, they will be required to isolate until receipt of a negative test result, which takes approximately 3 to 5 days. A traveler who does not meet the definition of fully vaccinated must do both a Day-1 and Day-8 test and is required to quarantine for 14 days.

Exemption to testing on arrival applies only to “an accredited person and a person holding a D1, O1 or C1 visa entering Canada to take up a post and become an accredited person” (as outlined in Schedule 2, Table 2, Item 37 of the Testing and Quarantine OIC linked above). Any traveler covered by the exception above who is not considered fully vaccinated as per the Canadian definition would be expected to voluntarily self-isolate in the location they indicated in ArriveCan for 14 days.
