Canada is set to allow fully vaccinated U.S. citizens and permanent residents to enter the country for non-essential travel beginning Aug. 9.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The Canadian government announced it would open its borders on Sept. 7 for non-essential travel for fully vaccinated travelers from any country as long as the COVID-19 situation continues to improve. Such individuals must have received a Canadian-approved vaccine at least 14 days before entering the country.
BAL Analysis: The change will ease procedures for fully vaccinated U.S. nationals planning travel to Canada; however, border measures remain subject to change as the epidemiological situation evolves. The U.S. continues to restrict non-essential travel across the U.S.-Canada border until at least Aug. 21. The response to the COVID-19 pandemic continues to develop, and BAL will provide additional updates as information becomes available.
