We have a group of 5 hunters traveling to Saskatchewan on Saturday to go bear hunting. The ArriveCAN stuff seems pretty straight forward for us, but one of the guys will be bringing his unvaccinated 10 year old son. Does he have to fill out the ArriveCAN info for him as well? From what I can tell it doesn’t seem required for children 12 and under. I just want to be positive so we don’t encounter any unexpected issues at the border.

Phone the border crossing that you will be using. They will answer your question.

I tried to call yesterday, but was unable to get through. I’ll try again when they open up.

Yes, all travelers, even those under 12 non-vaxx require Arrivecan. Add them on your phone as a separate person and it works easy enough.

When you put two people traveling together on the same phone or app do you have to enter all the data on that phone or is it just putting their name in

You can create a 'profile' for each traveller through the App. Most people put a family on one App (phone) and then they'd have access to those family members if they signed into the App on a different phone.
Main thing to watch for is you can create multiple profiles, but when you actually go to create your "ArriveCan Entry" you need to select each traveler and check the box for them so it loads them on to that receipt number.

Thanks for the info! I spoke to their helpline earlier today, and after quite a bit of back and forth, they echoed what you’re saying. Hopefully all goes smooth!

I take it you’re driving rather than flying?

Need to enter all their information into the app for each traveler (name/dob/vaccine dates/vaccine proof/etc)

Just FYI, I just returned from a Canada fishing trip. There are scammers on the ArriveCan site. They ask for your credit card number. It is free.

We just crossed through Coutts, and it couldn’t have been any easier.
