Ontario to require proof of vaccination in select settings

  • The Ontario government announced today that beginning September 22, 2021, Ontarians will need to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and provide proof of vaccination along with photo ID to access certain public settings and facilities.
  • The new regulations will help protect Ontarians against the Delta-driven fourth wave of COVID-19.
  • The new requirements will not apply to individuals seeking medical care, trips to the grocery store or outdoor settings.
  • Ontario will also introduce an enhanced digital vaccine receipt that features a QR code and can be kept on a phone to show that you’ve been vaccinated.
