International Students Still Need 14-day Quarantine Plans
Post by : Admin on Jul 23,2021
After August 9, international students arriving in Canada will not be required to stay three nights in a government-designated "quarantine hotel," but they will still be required to have 14-day quarantine arrangements.
“The Government of Canada recognizes the tremendous social, cultural and economic benefits that international students bring to Canada and acknowledges that there are benefits for students who choose to study in Canada beyond earning a degree or diploma,” noted Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) in a statement released Monday.
“As a result, during the epidemic, IRCC has worked to accommodate foreign students by implementing a number of temporary policy adjustments, including steps to assist international students studying online from other countries.”
When Ottawa declared on Monday that the border will reopen in three weeks, it also said that numerous public health restrictions would be lifted.
However, they do not take effect immediately, but rather on August 9th.
Unvaccinated travellers travelling to Canada must remain in a hotel for three nights while waiting for their COVID-19 results on arrival.
