Canada to Drop COVID-19 Vaccine Requirement for Travelers
On September 26, Health Canada announced that the COVID-19 vaccine requirement, along with other rules associated with cross-border travel, will expire on September 30, 2022.
Effective October 1, 2022, all travelers, regardless of citizenship, will no longer be required to take the following health measures:
Submit public health information through the ArriveCAN app or website:
1. Provide proof of vaccination
2. Undergo pre- or on-arrival testing
3. Carry out COVID-19-related quarantine or isolation
4. Monitor and report if they develop signs or symptoms of COVID-19 upon arriving to Canada.
For more information, see the announcement from Health Canada.
To date, there has been no announcement from the U.S. that the federal government will be making any similar changes to the current COVID-19 vaccine requirements for foreign nationals entering the country.
