Rules on Wearing Masks in PV & Covid Testing to get back to Canada and US.

As of May 10th, 2022 the Governor of Jalisco has ended the mask mandate with a couple of exceptions. The only requirements are as follows. Those who board public transportation and those who are in hospitals and clinics. Some businesses may have their own rules on wearing masks in their stores that as a guest you should abide by, but they are not required to do so by the government.

The cases of Covid in Puerto Vallarta as well as the rest of Mexico are very low as are the hospitalizations from Covid.

TESTING:

Going back to the US:

Testing required for ALL Travelers. Before boarding a flight to the United States, you are required to show a negative COVID-19 test result taken no more than 1 day before travel. There is also an option for people who have documented recovery from COVID-19 in the past 90 days. Children under 2 years old do not need to test.


Going back to Canada:

Travellers who don’t qualify as fully vaccinated must provide a valid pre-entry test to enter Canada. Pre-entry tests are no longer required for fully vaccinated travellers entering Canada by land, air or water. Children who are less than 5 years old aren’t required to test, regardless of their vaccination status

Foreign nationals who don't qualify as fully vaccinated will only be allowed to enter in specific circumstances i.e. Providing proof of a valid pre-entry test.
