Hi, I am a PR and I was previously tested positive for Covid in March this year, symptoms subsided and tested negative in April.

According to below new guidelines, do I need to stay in a Third country for at least 14 days or just stay for few days till I receive a negative report before traveling to Canada?


The Government of Canada has suspended flights from India until August 21, 2021.

During that period, passengers who travel to Canada from India via an indirect route will need to obtain a pre-departure negative COVID-19 molecular test result from a third country before continuing their journey to Canada.


Travellers who have previously tested positive for COVID-19 must provide proof of a positive COVID-19 molecular test conducted between 14 and 90 days prior to departure, instead of a negative COVID-19 molecular test. This proof must be obtained in a third country before the continuation of the journey to Canada. You might need to seek entry and stay in a third country for at least 14 days.
