Travel to Z

Arrival tests and possible quarantine while you await results

As a fully vaccinated traveller, you can travel to your place of quarantine, including on connecting flights, without waiting for your arrival test results (if selected for testing), unless it is determined at the border that you do not have a suitable quarantine plan.
Who must take an arrival test if selected to do so upon arrival

Upon your entry to Canada by air or at a land border crossing, the border services officer may notify you that you have been randomly selected for a mandatory arrival test.

Requirements for children accompanying parents:

children accompanying a parent selected for a test must follow the same rules as children of all vaccinated travellers
children selected for a test must quarantine, whether or not their parent(s) are not required to do so if they weren't selected

Fully vaccinated travellers are not exempt from mandatory randomized arrival testing.
