  • Invasion of personal freedoms and information

    Part of a dictatorship to control high tax paying citizens rights to freedom. It’s no ones business if we choose to go on day trips or visit the US for extended periods. This is a complete invasion of privacy and all 3 of us are seriously against being treated like communists. Hundreds of thousands of immigrants fly into Canada without vaccines and given more rights and privileges than the Canadian citizens who live here and pay your salaries with extortionist taxes. We can no longer afford to live here and real citizens are forced to live on the streets and pay the highest rents in the world if they are able to pay for a place to live. Trudeau is nothing more than a dictator and has destroyed what once was a great country. ArriveCAN is nothing more than a tracking program for the government. There’s my review!!!!

  • Pleasantly surprised

    Having begun travelling again last year I was delighted at how easy this was to use compared to similar requirements of other countries!
  • Upgrade 3.0.9 not available

    Just started using this app for my trip to Canada next month and according to arrivecan the latest version is 3.0.9 but can only get 3.0.7 so information is not up to date
    When will this new version be available
  • Arrive Can Review

    Mostly good not 5⭐️ because when two people traveling together the App wants both travellers on one registration, which is fine, but then the App does not make it easy to share the registration. Each traveler should have their own copy in case of being separated.
  • Absurd Requirements!

    We will be in Vancouver for 3 hours to board a ship which will depart, test us daily, and will not re-enter Canada. There are multiple layers of procedures to go through before riding the shuttle to the ship. We have had total vaccinations and 2 boosters, and had a monitored Covid test 72 hours before arriving. We are forced to register with app from cruise line, forced to register with app from airline, forced to register with ArriveCanada. We are then subject to random test on arrival, for which we are forced to pre-register, and then pre-register for the testing facility which might have to administer the random test. We will have to walk to the Covid testing facility while carrying our luggage and handicap sticker. If we are lucky enough to board the ship before it disembarks, we will be in international waters several days before the test results are known. The cruise ship will not re-enter Canada and quite frankly, we do not plan on entering Canada again either. I cannot recommend travel to Canada until this is simplified. Dr. Straube

  • Clearly government purchased fake reviews

    There is no way that Uber has 104k rating and Arrivecan has 500k. With almost 5 stars. This should be illegal. Also Tinder only has 40k. Anything seem suspect here?? 🙄
  • Great time saver - need to move UK on country list

    I have found the app easy to use and addition of advance CBSA declaration (for some airports) is great.
    Country of origin list has quite rightly replaced ‘Great Britain’ with’United Kingdom’ but it would be helpful if it could be moved to the ‘U’ section of the alphabetical list :)
  • Stupidly idiotic

    This app is stupid it only asks 2 questions each day. 14 days in isolation for a person unvaccinated is unexceptionable with no symptoms when vaccinated people can walk around as soon as they enter Canada. Vaccinated people can catch and spread the virus easier than unvaccinated people. This is against the charter of rights.

  • First time user

    I knew nothing about this as I live in the US.
    My brother in Canada told me about it. It makes so much sense as it makes it easier for the traveler to fill out info at home rather than at an airport. Also the immigration and airline people must like it as things should go smoother.

    Why can’t someone with the airlines promote this in the US. Let’s keep the cattle moving. If the guy or gal in front of me has this filled out if will keep me moving on. Good for all. And the airline companies may not be blaimed for the delays.

  • Of questionable use

    We used ArriveCan twice over a three week period, to enter at a land crossing to get to the Montreal airport to fly to France, then when coming back from France to cross back via the same land crossing into the US the same day. No provision whatsoever for this type of entering/exiting Canada… At least not one that is obvious. Had to call to find out what we should do, as the app doesn’t accept US addresses as a “destination.” Had to enter the airport’s address. On top of that, at both the land crossing into Quebec and arrival in Montreal by air from France, it was never checked. So a lot of hassle to use, and if the authorities never check upon arrival that you filled it out/used it, what’s the point? All throughout Europe, and to enter the US, nothing was as much of a hassle as entering Canada and using this app. Won’t be traveling to Canada again until they drop this nonsense (as well as the stupid random testing requirement that you receive AFTER you have already left Canada and have to clear to stop them from sending the Mounties after you…).
