BEFORE YOU APPLY

WHO CAN APPLY FOR THE CANADIAN ETA?

Apply for eTA Now

The eTA is required for citizens of visa-exempt countries traveling to Canada by air.

Use our entry requirements checker to confirm whether your nationality qualifies for the eTA before applying. The tool is user-friendly and helps to navigate the regulations quickly.

While travelers entering Canada by land or sea (such as by car or cruise) do not need an eTA, they must carry the appropriate travel documents.

Additionally, Canadian citizens, dual citizens, and US citizens are exempt from the eTA requirement and only need a valid passport to enter Canada.

NOTE:

If you already have a valid Canadian visa, you do not need to apply for an eTA, as the visa allows entry.
