The federal government will extend current COVID-19 public health measures for travellers entering Canada, including the use of the ArriveCan app. The measures now go until at least the end of September.

The Public Health Agency of Canada also says it will continue the pause of mandatory random testing for fully vaccinated travellers at all airports until mid-July.

The agency says it’s moving forward with plans to relocate COVID-19 testing for air travellers outside of airports to select test provider stores, pharmacies or by virtual appointment.

Mandatory random testing is to continue at land border points of entry with no changes.

The agency says travellers who are not fully vaccinated and don’t have a valid exemption must continue to test on Day One and Day Eight of their 14-day quarantine.

All travellers will have to continue to use the ArriveCan app or website to provide their travel information within 72 hours before their arrival in Canada or before boarding a cruise ship destined for the country.
