Exemptions for fully vaccinated travellers

If you qualify as a fully vaccinated traveller you are:

• Required to show a pre-entry molecular test
• Required to use ArriveCAN
• Exempt from quarantine
• Exempt from Day-8 testing

All travellers can be eligible to enter Canada as a fully vaccinated traveller regardless of citizenship. Canadians must meet and follow all of the same entry requirements.

If you quality as a fully vaccinated traveller, you also do not have to do on-arrival testing, unless you are selected for a mandatory randomized test.

If you provide essential services or already qualify for other exemptions from quarantine and Day-8 testing, you don’t need to be considered a fully vaccinated traveller to enter Canada. If you think you qualify for other exemptions: find out if your travel is exempt.
