Traveling to US from Canada what Covid test should I do? - Top view closeup of protective plastic eyeglasses and full of blood vials placed on medical diaper

I will be travelling to Canada and from there to US. The US regulations require a negative Covid test and I am currently researching options to do a test. The Hotel I will be staying in recommended a place (Amani Travel Health Clinic ) but I do not understand the difference between the different options and they also look a bit pricey. So a couple of questions:

  • Can someone recommend what is the best option for a test - it does not have to be the same place but what would a Canadian typically take to travel to US.

  • Do the prices listed in this place sounds reasonable?

EDIT: I will be staying in Vancouver the last few days and I will be flying to US



Best Answer

The testing requirements for a non-US-citizen flying to the US are on this CDC page. A rapid antigen test is acceptable.

Googling "rapid antigen test Vancouver BC" will return many results.
