With the arrival of the new variant of coronavirus called the omicron, Canada has made a set of new travel restrictions.
Ten South African countries were restricted last week by Canada. These countries are Nigeria, Namibia, Malawi, South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Eswatini, and Zimbabwe.
Travelers returning from these countries in the past two weeks will not be allowed to enter Canada.
According to the new travel restrictions, Canadian citizens and permanent residents of Canada who are traveling from these countries have to get a COVID-19 test done in a different country altogether. The recent travel restrictions are currently enabling Canadian returning to Canada from South Africa to be tested before departure.
Visitors from specific countries will not be allowed in Canada until January 31st, next year. The only people allowed in Canada will be the Canadian Citizens and Permanent Residents in the country but they too have to follow the strict travel norms decided by the Canadian officials before entering the Maple country.
Likewise, Canada once again introduced on-appearance testing and quarantine for explorers from all nations with the exception of the U.S. Completely inoculated explorers should step through an exam on appearance, and quarantine at home until they get the outcomes.

Prior traveling
The government of Canada has launched a web application that enables travelers coming to Canada to check if they are allowed in the country or not. However, it must be noted that this online tool will not make a decision of allowing you in Canada but the official at the Canadian border will do.
A traveler needs a 2 weeks quarantine plan after the official states that they need to self-isolate. The vaccination status will not matter in any of the cases.
Everyone who is more than five years must present a test report that is negative in the last 72 hours. This test has to be done before departing from Canada and on arrival at the border, you must have a report. If the report turns out to be positive, it should be from forty days to 180 days old.
You will only be certified as fully vaccinated unless you have been immunized with any one of the following vaccinations:
- Pfizer BioNTech
- Moderna
- Bharat Biotech
- AstraZeneca
- Sinovac
- Sinopharm
- Johnson and Johnson
