Good to know
- Citizens of eTA-eligible countries travelling to Canada BY AIR need an eTA (not a visitor visa); most approvals arrive within minutes but can take several days if extra documents are requested. Travelling by land or sea generally does not require an eTA, just a valid passport.
- The eTA costs CAN$7 and is valid for up to 5 years or until the traveller's passport expires, whichever comes first; a new passport requires a new eTA. An eTA does not permit work or study in Canada.
- US citizens, US lawful permanent residents (with valid passport and green card), Canadian permanent residents, and dual Canadian citizens (travelling on a Canadian passport) are exempt from the eTA.
- Nationals of visa-required countries generally need a visitor visa instead of an eTA, though some visa-required nationalities may qualify for an eTA specifically for air travel — check eligibility for a specific passport on the official portal.
As a citizen of Haiti you must apply for a visa at a Canada embassy or consulate before you travel. Start early: appointments and processing can take weeks, and you'll usually need supporting documents.
