Provide mandatory travel information for Canada

ArriveCAN is a free and vital travel companion especially if you are deciding to go to Canada. This simple app can save your contact and travel document information that the country demands before and after entering. With the emergence of the pandemic worldwide, Canada has strictly required travelers to provide personal and quarantine details.

ArriveCAN is one of the government's efforts in reducing the spread of COVID-19 as well as prevent importation. This will help to significantly speed up your process at the Canadian port of entry. For more journey aides, you can also download TripIt, TripAdvisor, and Google Trips.

What is ArriveCAN used for?

Regardless of whether you are embarking on Canada by air, land, or marine vessel, all travelers must utilize ArriveCAN and fill in all necessary information. Remember that you must have submitted it within 72 hours before arrival. If you fail to do so, there's a high chance that you will be denied boarding or entry to Canada particularly if you are a foreign national.

If you are a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or a person registered under the Indian Act and a foreign national eligible to enter Canada under another entry exemption like foreign work, study, compassionate grounds, entrance will not be declined. However, you'll have certain fines or enforcement sanctions and long delays. Besides contact and travel  details, you'll need to supply vaccine information along with your pre-entry test results and quarantine plans.

For convenience, you can include multiple travelers in your submission in case you're traveling with other companions. Well, if you're not the traveler, you can still send in the required data on behalf of others who can't perform it by themselves due to some circumstances. Once all info is transferred, a receipt will be emailed to you. All personal details you shared will never be stored nor tracked.

Essential for Canadian travels

ArriveCAN is an important application to install particularly if you're considering coming to Canada. Like a boarding pass, you'll have to present this as you arrive in the country for easy and smooth entry. Keep in mind that when you get the email receipt, it'll only confirm that you have successfully provided your information and not validate your eligibility to enter Canada, vaccination status, or essential travel status.
