Nigerians coming directly from Nigeria (and other foreign nationals coming from red-flagged countries directly) will not be allowed to enter Canada.

Those who are not in the category above, but who have lived in the red-flagged country (and are not Canadian citizens or Permanent residence) will not be allowed to enter Canada unless they stay in another country for at least a period of 14 days.

Permanent residence and citizens of Canada can travel to Canada even if they have lived in the red-flagged countries, but they will be quarantined and tested...

Still the same thing they've been telling us

(When you read between the lines, it is as if they are saying that Europeans and Americans who have lived in these flagged countries can travel to Canada but will undergo testing and quarantine, while Nigerians and some African nationals who travel directly from the flagged countries will not be allowed to enter Canada).

Henriie:

People weren't watching when you got your visa?? You guys are funny

lol.. be going. Please don’t join the group too. You can start yours here too.

They didnt mention any nationality - they only said all travelers

They need to come out and state what they mean by all travelers

Maybe those who are in the affected areas briefly. This is usually people who passed through the region. Many of these people are not nationals of those regions.

I am just interpreting based on how it seems to me.

Lmaoooo 'ello tueh tueh. Testing microphone 1, 2... I never do ielts before o please pardon my translation.

It says Nigeria and the rest are still banned. For their citizens and PR holders coming from the banned countries, regardless of full vaccination or not are subject to testing and quarantine. Day 1 in government facility, if negative they get to go to their own quarantine location and then re-test on day 8. Even if it's negative, they will remain in quarantine till day 14. If positive, they remain in isolation for 10 more days (Day 18)
"All other travellers, regardless of vaccination status, who have been in the countries listed above within the last 14 days, will be subject to immediate on arrival (Day 1) testing. They will also be required to complete a test on Day 8 after arrival, and quarantine for 14 days."


Now to the one that concerns those of us needing to fly through countries that isn't the US
Vaccinated travellers- They will take a day 1 test on arrival, and are allowed to go home to wait for the result.
They may also select to quarantine you until the negative test is received.

Unvaccinated travellers- They will take a Day 1 test on arrival and taken to quarantine until test is returned. Negative you go home and isolate and take a Day 8 test. If day 1 is positive, you may still get to go home and isolate or kept in quarantine for 10 additional days

Vaccinated travellers who have travelled outside Canada or the United States within the past 14 days are required to take a Day 1 COVID-19 arrival test and quarantine at home until Day 1 test results are received.
If the result of the Day 1 arrival test is positive, the traveller is required to isolate at home for an additional 10 days.
If the result of the Day 1 arrival test is negative, the traveller is released from quarantine.

Un-vacinated- If the result of the Day 1 arrival test is negative, the traveller is required to quarantine at home and take a Day 8 COVID-19 test.
If the result of the Day 8 test is negative, the traveller’s quarantine ends on Day 14.
If the result of the Day 8 test is positive, the traveller must isolate for an additional 10 days

With these few points of mine, I hope I've been able to convince you,not confuse you that you are permitted to spend 14 days in a non-prohibited country and fly to Canada from there. But be prepared to possibly spend 14 days in quarantine.

The thing is, they didnt mention Canadian Citizens or PR or People with Indian status like they usually do. So one cant just assume they meant that.

Tinakem:



Why not send the msg to the admin. He asked everyone here that are interested to send msg so that they can discuss in d Whatapp. There are some things that cannot be said here reason for the group. I sent him msg and he did. This is a faceless app and who knows.

please can you add me to the group thanks

They said foreign nationals which i take as anyone that isn't a Canadian. So dem dun deny PR holders now sef hahaha. Anyway, what I understand is if you're not a Canadian and you want to come into the country you have to have been out of the prohibited countries for 14 days prior to travel, and the below scenarios are what will happen/be required when you land.

But this is the same thing they said Nov 30, something must be different on that update and we're not getting it. They need to come out plain

The difference is for vaccinated travelers (Canadians or foreign) coming from outside the US or Canada ? Was the Day 1 testing required for all travellers before now?

It’s been God honestly. I found out about the chargeback through an MP of my province. I came here to tell everyone and people said I was even lucky to have found out earlier. I found out on the 8th of November. I sent an explanation and paid only for me to receive the letter on the 18th. Omo I couldn’t even cry. I was just devastated. I reached out to @IAMTHEGBEMISOLA after reading how he tackled his own and got his approval. Special thanks to him and today I finally got min.

Landed properties of my sponsor
Bank statements
Birth certificates and passport data pages of my family

Even though there's no new info, perhaps it's useful for few.

Please for the unvaccinated that may want to become vaccinated later... please check out this link below to avoid stories that touch ..

Hi Andy, I'm going through Mexico (Cancun) and I'm in the WhatsApp group. The main things discussed are rerouting tickets from Canada to Cancun. We were also advised to ensure we book our tickets showing departure from Mexico before we leave Naij. We were told immigration at Canada will request to see proof hotel reservation. Some people are linking up as travel buddies or room mates in Cancun. That's pretty much all that's happened. If you have any other concerns I'll try to address them. Cheers!

Andytheo:
For people going to Canada through Cotonou, Ghana or Mexico, please share information on this platform instead of creating new WhatsApp groups.
Don't deny us of vital information. Abeg I dey beg una.

Yes mostly same but to me ooo, the lil difference is that vaccinated travellers who have not been to the banned countries in the last 14 days will only do the day 1 testing and quarantine at home ( before now, they would stay in a government approved facility for 3 days to wait for their test) till they get a negative result, then if negative will be freed from quarantine. They also clearly made the update to capture every scenario that may occur..

Leyemoshood:

But this is the same thing they said Nov 30, something must be different on that update and we're not getting it. They need to come out plain

Yes.. they started the testing for everyone after the Omicron case findings..
