Travellers should keep in mind standard precautions for minimizing the spread of COVID-19.
For travellers who require proof of a negative lab PCR COVID-19 test for their airline or destination or for workplace purposes, private lab services are available to provide an independent testing service as an option for asymptomatic testing. A self-administered at home self-test (rapid antigen test) will not be accepted as valid proof of negative COVID-19 test results.
The testing is user-pay.
Travellers who are interested can view list of labs offering testing services.
It is recommended that you check any restrictions or Public Health Orders that may apply in the jurisdiction to which you are travelling. It is not mandatory that you self-isolate upon your return from an out-of-province trip.
The presence of variants across Canada means an elevated risk of bringing more transmissible strains of COVID-19 home with you. COVID-19 vaccinations remain the best defense to prevent serious illness and hospitalizations. The Saskatchewan Health Authority and pharmacies throughout the province continue to provide vaccination clinics. To find a clinic near you please visit COVID-19 vaccine. Testing does not prevent the spread of COVID-19
Exposure protocols and information about flights returning to Saskatchewan with a confirmed case of COVID-19, are posted on the Public Health Agency of Canada website.
All vaccines approved for use in Canada are safe and effective.
However, some countries are requiring travellers to provide proof of vaccination with specific vaccines, such as two doses of the same mRNA vaccine like Pfizer or Moderna.
Saskatchewan is now permitting additional doses of COVID-19 vaccines for those who may require it for international travel.
Residents who received two doses of AstraZeneca or Covishield are able to complete a schedule of two additional mRNA vaccines acceptable for travel. Individuals should discuss any questions with their physician.
A third or fourth vaccine dose may be received at least 28 days after an individual’s most recent COVID-19 immunization.
Proof of intent to travel will not be required to receive the vaccinations. Additional doses are not required for travel within Canada.
Anyone planning to travel should confirm vaccination and negative testing requirements to enter their intended destination.
A recommendation on additional doses of vaccine for immunocompromised individuals is expected from NACI (National Advisory Committee on Immunization) in the next few weeks.
Visit the Government of Canada website for information and rules around international travel, including exemptions for fully vaccinated travellers.
If you have received a COVID-19 vaccination in another jurisdiction, your Saskatchewan health record can be updated.
