Canada: cosa sapere prima di partire

L’essenziale

  • Most visa-exempt foreign visitors flying to Canada need an eTA; US nationals and US permanent residents are exempt. Use the official CAD 7 application.
  • Do not cross the border with cannabis or CBD products without the required authorisation, even where their use is legal.

Ingresso e visti

Check the official passport-specific tool: a visitor visa or eTA may be needed, including for transit. British visa-exempt visitors need an eTA for air travel, but not arrival by land or sea. US nationals and permanent residents are exempt from both, with appropriate documents. Most visits are allowed for up to six months, but the border officer decides.
