Suspension of Random COVID Testing at Canadian Airports

The government of Canada has announced that random COVID testing of arriving travellers at Canadian airports is suspended until June 30. Note that:

  • The announcement does not appear to remove the testing from land border crossings (or other methods of entry to Canada)
  • This provision does not apply to unvaccinated travellers (who may be allowed entry to Canada in limited circumstances). [Note further that in some cases, unvaccinated travellers may also have quarantine requirements.]

It is expected that new off-site testing procedures will be implemented beginning July 1, and we await details on that process.
