Canada to remove pre-entry test requirements for fully vaccinated travelers

The Canadian Government has announced that effective April 1, fully vaccinated travelers will no longer need to undergo and provide a pre-entry COVID-19 test result to enter Canada by air, land or water. As of April 1, fully vaccinated travelers will still need to submit their mandatory information to the ArriveCAN app or website prior to arriving in Canada. They also may be required to take a COVID-19 molecular test upon arrival in Canada if they are randomly selected on arrival for mandatory testing. Currently, fully vaccinated travelers must provide a valid pre-entry test when traveling to Canada.

A Tax Alert prepared by EY Law LLP, and attached below, provides additional details.
