Canada announces the lifting of all restrictions<\/strong> related Covid-19<\/strong> from September 30. This decision marks an important step in the process of reopening the country to international travellers, putting an end to the requirement of compulsory vaccination<\/strong>of PCR tests<\/strong> and quarantine<\/strong> for arrivals. At the same time, the use of the ArriveCan<\/strong> will no longer be compulsory, although it will remain an optional tool for customs and immigration formalities. This development is in line with trends in many Western countries, reflecting a shared desire to return to normality.<\/p>\n\n From 30 September, the Canada<\/strong> will put an end to all restrictions linked to Covid-19<\/strong> for international travellers. This decision, which marks a major step in the return to normal, means the expiry of a ministerial decree which imposed a compulsory vaccination<\/strong>and PCR tests<\/strong> and a quarantine<\/strong> for those entering Canada. While the government is aligning itself with the practices already established by most Western countries, the official announcement remains imminent.<\/p>\n\n Since the start of the pandemic, Canada has put in place strict measures to protect its population. Travellers wishing to enter the country had to prove their vaccination status, undergo PCR tests and, if necessary, comply with a period of \"deferral\". quarantine<\/strong>. With the end of these requirements, Canadians and foreigners will be able to travel freely, without fear of health restrictions. This decision is part of a global drive to standardise international travel.<\/p>\n\n When the restrictions expire, use of the ArriveCan<\/strong> will no longer be required to provide information on vaccinations or tests. However, the application will remain an optional tool for customs and immigration formalities. The simplicity of travel will therefore be improved, allowing travellers to concentrate on their experience rather than on complex administrative issues.<\/p>\n\n The situation is also changing for unvaccinated Canadians. At present, these travellers must present a negative result<\/strong> tests for Covid-19 before arriving in Canada and undergo further tests once here. In addition, a stay in quarantine<\/strong> of 14 days. From the end of September, this requirement will no longer apply, opening the door to greater freedom of movement.<\/p>\n\n At present, access to Canada is restricted for unvaccinated foreigners, except for specific categories such as airline crew members, temporary foreign workers and other exceptions. Ending the restrictions could allow more foreigners to visit Canada without encountering administrative obstacles. This flexibility is essential to revive the economy and the tourism sector, which have been hit by the pandemic.<\/p>\n\nThe evolution of travel rules in Canada<\/h2>\n\n
