About the Electronic Travel Authority for Canada
The Electronic Travel Authorization for Canada (eTA) is a government-issued document that allows citizens of countries that have a reciprocity agreement with Canada to enter the country without a visa. eTa was created to facilitate travel by non-residents who are legally authorized to enter Canada.
Citizens traveling by air to Canada for tourism, business or visiting acquaintances, who have a simple e-passport and intend to stay here for up to 6 months continuously, will need this electronic travel authorization.
The Canada Electronic Travel Authority must be applied for online before traveling to Canada and is valid for 5 years or until the passport expires. Applicants must meet specific requirements and provide supporting documents to obtain a Canada visitor visa. These requirements vary depending on the applicant's country of origin and may include valid travel documents, proof of legal residence, bank account information, and an email address.
Whether you are planning to travel to Canada for tourism, business or to visit friends, it is important to familiarise yourself with the various documents and requirements you will need to meet. By having all the necessary documents at hand, you can easily prepare for your trip to avoid any potential complications. In this way, you will ensure a smooth and trouble-free travel experience.
