Visa or ETA? What do you need to travel to Canada?

Who can travel to Canada?

Individuals visiting Canada from visa-exempt countries require an ETA, and they need an ETA only if they are arriving in Canada by air. People who already have a Canadian visa, Canadian citizenship, or Canadian permanent residence do not need an ETA to enter Canada. All travelers either need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) to transit through a Canadian airport.

If you are traveling for a short stay, up to 6 months, you do not require a visa. You will require an ETA instead.

What is the Canadian Electronic Travel Authority ETA?

The ETA is a fast authorization that will allow you to board a flight to enter Canada. ETA is used by individuals instead of a Canada visitor visa, it serves the same purpose. With ETA, you can visit your friends, and families or just travel around the country for a short period of time that is 6 months or less. With ETA, you are not allowed to stay permanently in Canada or apply for any Canadian health benefits.

Which One is Better - Canada ETA or Visa

Depending on the purpose of the individual, you can decide whether ETA or visa is better for you. For people from countries that are visa-exempt and planning to visit Canada for a short period of time, ETA is the best option. The ETA allows multiple short stays in Canada for up to five years.

 

Individuals planning to work, study, or immigrate to Canada can choose a visa as an option. The process of visa application is generally more complex and takes more time but it allows for a longer duration of stay in Canada.
