Information Regarding Cross-Border and International Travel

10/27/2021

The Public Safety Division would like to advise the community that due to the ever-changing nature of travel restrictions at the various ports of entry, personal travel questions/inquiries are not the responsibility of Public Safety.

�With Canada and the U.S. reviewing and changing requirements for cross-border travel, we are advising Kahnawa�kehr�:non to research the various government websites to see the latest information and updates regarding trips over the border,� said Lloyd Phillips, Commissioner of Public Safety. �We understand that people are eager to plan day trips and vacations in the United States and abroad; however, be advised that any restrictions, vaccination or quarantine requirements are those of the U.S. or Canada, not Kahnaw�:ke.  Also, be advised that it is at the discretion of the individual border services agent to make the determination if you meet their criteria. 

Residents can access current COVID-19 travel restrictions and/or regulations before crossing the border by visiting the following websites:
