Entering Canada by Air or Land All travellers entering Canada by air or land (with limited exceptions) must use ArriveCAN to submit your travel information within 72 hours before your arrival to Canada. 2. Travelling to Canada by Marine If you travel to Canada by marine, you are strongly encouraged to submit your travel information through ArriveCAN prior to your journey for faster processing at the border.
