<h2 id="pre-entry-testing">Pre-entry testing (accepted types, timing)</h2>
<h3>Options for providing proof of a valid pre-entry test</h3>
<p>At this time, all travellers 5 years of age or older entering by land, air or water, must <strong>provide proof of one of the following</strong> accepted types of test results:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Starting February 28: proof of a professionally administered or observed negative antigen test</strong> taken outside of Canada no more than 1 day before your scheduled flight or entry to Canada by land or water
<ul>
<li>the one day window does not depend on the time of day the test was taken or the time of your flight or entry</li>
<li>for example, if your flight is scheduled to leave or you enter by land any time on Friday, you could provide proof of a negative result from an antigen test taken any time on Thursday, or on Friday</li>
<li>it must be administered or observed by a pharmacy, laboratory, healthcare entity or telehealth service</li>
<li>the test must be authorized for sale or distribution in Canada or in the jurisdiction in which it was obtained</li>
<li>the test must be performed outside of Canada </li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Proof of a valid negative molecular test</strong> taken outside of Canada within 72 hours of your scheduled flight’s departure time to Canada or your entry to Canada by land or water
<ul>
<li>for example, if your flight is scheduled to leave at 11:00 am on Friday, your test must have been taken any time after 10:59 am on Tuesday</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Previous positive molecular test result:</strong> you no longer have symptoms and provide proof of a positive molecular test taken at least 10 calendar days and no more than 180 calendar days before entering Canada. Counting starts the day after your test.
<ul>
<li>for example, if your positive COVID-19 molecular test was taken on January 1, then January 11 would be the earliest scheduled departure date of your flight to Canada, or the first day you could use it to enter Canada by land or water</li>
<li>if your positive proof is accepted you won’t have to take arrival or Day-8 tests</li>
<li>this test can be taken in or outside of Canada</li>
<li>a positive antigen test result is never a valid test result for boarding a flight or entry to Canada and can’t be used as proof of a previous infection</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>End of short trip exemption</strong>: the pre-entry testing exemption for trips 72 hours or less
ended on December 21, 2021.</p>
<div id="pre-entry-test-exempt"><strong>Who doesn't need a pre-entry test:</strong></div>
<ul class="mrgn-bttm-lg">
<li>Children under 5 years of age</li>

<span id="flying">Flying to Canada - when to take your test</span>
</summary>
<p>If you have a connecting flight:</p>
<ul>
<li>the test must be timed for the scheduled departure time of <strong>your final flight that lands in Canada</strong></li>
<li>you may need to schedule the test in your transit city or if you’re travelling for longer than 24 hours, you may want to consider taking a molecular test instead of an antigen test.</li>
</ul>
<p>Your proof of a valid negative test result is timed from the initial scheduled departure time of your flight to Canada:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>a negative molecular test</strong> is valid if taken outside of Canada within 72 hours
<ul>
<li>for example, if your flight is scheduled to leave at 11:00 am on Friday, your test must have been taken any time after 10:59 am on Tuesday</li>
<li><strong>Delayed flights</strong>: if your flight is delayed by the airline, your negative COVID-19 molecular test can be used for up to an additional 24 hours (to a maximum of 96 hours) from the scheduled departure time. If the delay causes your test to be more than 96 hours old, you’ll need to be retested.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>starting February 28, 2022: a negative antigen test</strong> is valid if taken outside of Canada no more than one day before
<ul>
<li>for example, if your flight is scheduled to leave at 11:00 am on Friday, your test must have been taken on the Friday or anytime on Thursday</li>
<li><strong>Delayed flights</strong>: if your flight is delayed by the airline, your test can be used for up to an additional 24 hours from the scheduled departure time. If the delay causes the test result to be more than 24 hours past the one day limit, you’ll need to be retested.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cancelled flights:</strong> if your flight is cancelled by the airline, there are no extensions to the time limit for your pre-entry test. If your new scheduled flight is not within the time limit for your test, you’ll need to be retested.</p>
<p>Airlines may refuse boarding to travellers who are unable to provide a valid negative test result or proof of a <strong>previous positive</strong> molecular test result taken at least 10 calendar days and no more than 180 calendar days before entering Canada.</p>
<ul>
<li>for example, if your positive COVID-19 molecular test was taken on January 1, then January 11 would be the earliest scheduled departure date of your flight to Canada, or the first day you could use it to enter Canada by land or water</li>
<li>if your positive proof is accepted you won’t have to take arrival or Day-8 tests</li>
</ul>
<p>Special testing requirements for India and Morocco ended on January 28, 2022. Travellers arriving from these countries must follow the same requirements as all travellers, if eligible to enter Canada. </p>
</details>
<details>
<summary><span id="land-crossing">Arriving by car, bus, boat, ferry or train</span></summary>
<p>You must take your pre-entry test outside of Canada based on the time you arrive at the land border or marine port of entry:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>a negative molecular test</strong> is valid if taken outside of Canada within 72 hours of arrival
<ul>
<li>for example, if you enter Canada at 11:00 am on Friday, your test must have been taken any time after 10:59 am on Tuesday</li>
</ul>

<li><strong>starting February 28, 2022: a negative antigen test result</strong> is valid if taken outside of Canada no more than one day before arrival

<li>for example, if you plan to enter Canada by land or water on a Friday, your test must have been taken on the Friday or anytime on Thursday</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</details>
<details>
<summary><span id="positive-results">Positive results on your pre-entry test</span></summary>
<p>A positive molecular pre-entry test result taken less than 10 calendar days before your planned entry or flight to Canada <strong>is not a valid</strong> test result for entry to Canada.</p>
<p>A positive antigen pre-entry test result is <strong>never</strong> a valid test result for boarding a flight or entry to Canada, not even if it is from within 10 to 180 calendar days before your date of entry.</p>
<p><strong>Foreign nationals</strong> with symptoms or with a positive result from less than 10 calendar days before arriving will be denied entry.</p>
<p><strong>Canadians</strong>: To avoid being fined $5,000 per traveller (plus surcharges), wait to enter Canada at least 10 calendar days after your positive molecular test result. If travelling by air, you’ll be denied boarding. Counting starts the day following the day of testing.</p>
<ul>
<li>for example, if your positive COVID-19 molecular test was taken on January 1, then January 11 would be the first day you could use it</li>
<li>January 11 would be the earliest scheduled departure date of your flight to Canada, or the first day you could use it to enter Canada by land or water</li>
<li>if you had a positive antigen test result, you must either:
<ul>
<li>wait until you obtain a negative antigen test result,</li>
<li>obtain a positive molecular test result to use after 10 days have passed from the date the molecular test was taken, or</li>
<li>obtain a negative molecular test result which can be used within 72 hours of your scheduled flight or entry to Canada by land or water</li>
</ul>

<p>Make your quarantine plans in advance of your arrival to Canada. Foreign nationals who do not have a suitable plan may be denied entry into Canada. If you do not have a suitable place to quarantine, you may be directed to a federal designated quarantine facility.</p>
<p>Before travellers are directed to a federal designated quarantine facility, government representatives may work with them to confirm that all other options for quarantine accommodations within their own means have been exhausted.</p>
<p>Where required, transportation from the border crossing to a federal designated quarantine and the cost of the facility is provided by the Government of Canada.</p>

<p>If your submission included travellers who are not exempt from the requirement to quarantine (e.g., unvaccinated 12- to 17-year-olds or unvaccinated dependent adults), you will receive ArriveCAN notifications and will be asked to complete daily reporting for the unvaccinated travellers. If you did not have an A, I, or V next to your name on your ArriveCAN receipt, you did not qualify as fully vaccinated and will get post-border notifications.</p>
<p>If you are receiving notifications that don't reflect your situation, use the ArriveCAN contact form so that your situation can be resolved:</p>

<li>(V) or (I) your vaccination status (ensure you have evidence of your proof of vaccination when you travel and be prepared to show it on arrival)</li>
