Planning a visit to Canada?

Before you plan your trip to Canada, you MUST check if you need a visitor visa to cross the Canadian Border. It is essential to check all the requirements for entry, in order to avoid any delays, problems and wasted money. 

If you are not sure if you require a visa or meet the requirements for entry, please reach out to us. We will be happy to consult you on this regard and ensure that you are ready for your trip to Canada!

Most visitors need a Temporary Resident Visa (also referred as visitor visa) or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to come to Canada. Whether you need one or not, depends on your country of citizenship. You can find out if you are visa exempt and need an eTA to come to Canada here.

Temporary resident visas can be good for one entry to Canada or for a period of time.

- have no criminal or immigration-related convictions;

You may also need a medical exam and letter of invitation from someone who lives in Canada.
