Isolating after a positive test result on arrival or Day-8 If you receive a positive arrival or Day-8 COVID-19 molecular test result from a test required by the Government of Canada, you must report to the Public Health Agency of Canada within 24 hours by calling 1-833-641-0343 and isolate immediately. This applies to any federal government-required test that you were selected to complete, including a mandatory random test.
Your isolation period ends after the 10th day from the day on which you took the test.
Federal rules for quarantine and isolation after entering Canada are different from the provincial or territorial rules. In this case, you must follow the stricter rules.
For example, if you must isolate after testing positive on your arrival molecular COVID-19 test that was provided to you at the border, you must stay in mandatory isolation for 10 days, even if your province only requires 5 days of isolation.
If you want to leave Canada, you cannot board a plane to do so.
If you leave Canada during your isolation period
You’ll need permission from a Quarantine Officer to leave Canada during your isolation period.
