Hello, folks! If you didn’t catch the initial announcement, Canada has reopened its borders for international travellers as of today. Of course, it’s not a free-for-all, since there are strict requirements in place for those who wish to visit. Care for a recap? We’ve got you covered, don’t worry.

Starting today (September 7th), foreign travellers (that aren’t from the US) will be able to enter Canada without a mandatory 14-day quarantine. Our borders opened for American travellers back in August, with largely the same requirements as what’s in place now. So, let’s check that out.

The requirements are are:

  • must be asymptomatic
  • must have a verified negative test result within 72 hours of their flight to Canada
  • must be fully vaccinated, using a Health Canada approved vaccine
  • must submit all requirements via official Canada services and channels

Apparently, these fully vaccinated travellers present a minimal risk to Canada’s public health system, which is why the plan has gone through. Even still, flights with potential COVID exposure continue to be catalogued by the federal government.
