Traveling with Canada’s COVID-19 Proof of Vaccination

Lisa C. COVID-19

Canada’s COVID-19 proof of vaccination shows your vaccination history in a standard, easy to read, format that includes your province’s or territory’s logo, the Canada wordmark and a QR code.
The proof of vaccination can be used for travel within Canada and around the world.
  • Residents of Newfoundland and Labrador, the Northwest Territories, Nova Scotia, Nunavut, Ontario, Quebec, Saskatchewan, and Yukon may already have the Canadian COVID-19 proof of vaccination.
  • The rest of the provinces, including Alberta, will start to issue Canada’s COVID-19 proof of vaccination in the coming weeks, so it will be available from coast to coast.
The proof of vaccination includes
  • your name,
  • date of birth,
  • COVID-19 vaccination info

The information helps officials in Canada or abroad confirm whether you meet their public health requirements.

As of October 30, 2021, one of the ways you can use Canada’s COVID-19 proof of vaccination is to meet the new mandatory COVID-19 vaccination requirements for Canadian federally regulated transportation travellers.
