【重要】现在谁能入境?加拿大出入境细则

出入境禁令

为对抗新冠疫情在加拿大的传播,加拿大内阁的枢密院令第2020-0157号文件做出以下批示:

Whereas the Governor in Council is of the opinion that

(a) based on the declaration of a pandemic by the World Health Organisation, there is an outbreak of a communicable disease, namely COVID-19 coronavirus disease, in the majority of foreign countries;

(b) the introduction or spread of the disease would pose an imminent and severe risk to public health in Canada;

(c) the entry of persons into Canada who have recently been in a foreign country may introduce or contribute to the spread of the disease in Canada; and

(d) no reasonable alternatives to prevent the introduction or spread of the disease are available;

Therefore, Her Excellency the Governor General in Council, on the recommendation of the Minister of Health, pursuant to section 58 of the Quarantine Act, makes the annexed Minimizing the Risk of Exposure to COVID-19 Coronavirus Disease in Canada Order (Prohibition of Entry into Canada).

 

基于枢密院令,加拿大于2020年3月16日周一公布旅行禁令。最初旅行禁令只禁止所有的外国访客,加拿大公民、永久居民、加拿大公民的直系亲属、机组乘员、外交官和美国公民不受禁令影响。其后,政府进一步确认永久居民的直系亲属也属于可入境人员。周三,美国公民例外的情况被修订成限制所有非必要旅行。但政府没有对“必要旅行”和“非必要旅行”做出定义。

今日2020年3月19日已经就该旅行禁令给出明确定义。新禁止令于3月18日中午12点生效,直到6月30日中午12点解禁。以下永久和临时居留人员将不受禁令影响:

 

  1. 加拿大公民和永久居民的直系家属,包括:配偶、同居配偶、受抚育子女和孙子女。(不包含父母和兄弟姐妹)
  2. 加拿大使领馆官员书面授权允许进入加拿大与直系家属团聚的人士
  3. 在入境加拿大的前14天内,只在美加逗留的人士(包括临时居民)
  4. 难民申请人
  5. 需要为加拿大提供必要服务的人员(如医护人员)
  6. 加拿大外长、移民部长或公共安全部长认为有利于加拿大国家利益的人员

其中第3条定义,允许加拿大游客、国际学生、国际劳工出入美加。但我们建议近期不要冒险过境,特殊时期,很容易被禁止入境。

不要边境插旗

边境插旗,意思是去美加边境取得新的身份,如:在美加边境申请工作签证、学习签证、边境登录。

目前,加拿大边境局对边境插旗的行为做出以下批示:

Travel for the purpose of obtaining immigration services is non-essential. If you are in Canada, and are seeking to travel to the border in order to make an application for a work permit, study permit or permanent residence, you are asked to consider federal and provincial guidelines for self-isolation and social distancing. Do not travel to the border for these services until further notice. If you are currently in Canada as a visitor, student or worker, you can apply online to IRCC to extend your temporary resident status.

在边境取得移民服务被认为是非必要出入境。如果你在加拿大境内,想要去边境申请学签、工签、登录,你会被要求旅行联邦的自我隔离政策。从即日起,不要去边境获得这些服务。如果你是游客、留学生或国际劳工,目前在加拿大境内,请向移民局递交延期申请。

注意,边境插旗目前被边境局定义为“非必要旅行”,一旦出境,会被禁止入境,后果严重。

国际学生和国际劳工的是否可以入境

目前关于美加境外的学签和工签持有人是否可以入境的清晰不明确。此前周三2020年3月18日加拿大公共安全部长的讲话被认为是此类人员可以入境的依据。但联邦政府在今天3月19日的声明显示了差别。政府声明如下

Air Carriers

To confirm, a travel ban has been implemented through an order under the Aeronautics Act which requires air carriers operating flights to Canada to deny boarding to any passenger who is not a Canadian citizen or permanent resident (or an immediate family member). The measure came into force on Wednesday, March 18, at 12:00 p.m. (noon) EDT, and applies to travellers arriving by air.

For clarity, what this means is that international students and workers who are outside of Canada and the United States will not be permitted to board an aircraft to return to Canada, unless they are the spouse, common-law partner or dependent child of a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.

声明显示,学签和工签持有人,如果不是加拿大永久居民和公民的直系亲属,将被限制入境。但是,目前在加拿大和美国的学签和工签持有人,如果没有去过其他国家,并且出入境行为是必要的,将予以放行。

但是,政府文件目前没有就“必要旅行”给出确切定义。
