The Canada Border Administrations Organization (CBSA) announced on September 3, that only vaccinated people will be welcomed to Canada.
“Effective September 7, those aliens who will be fully vaccinated travelers exception can enter Canada for optional (non-essential) travel,” the CBSA expressed in a statement.
The non-Canadian citizens and permanent residents who would follow this rule can easily enter the country.
Although travelers must confirm that they meet the testing and online form-filling criteria before arrival. The confirmation of future border reopening comes a month after restrictions on non-essential travel for fully vaccinated visitors from the United States were eliminated.
