What is the Canada eTA (Electronic Travel Authorization)?

The Canada eTA (Electronic Travel Authorization) is a mandatory digital travel authorization required for visa-exempt foreign nationals traveling to Canada by air. It allows short-term visits for tourism, business, or transit purposes.

The eTA is electronically linked to your passport and replaces traditional visa stamps and embassy visits. Once approved, you receive confirmation by email and can travel to Canada without presenting additional paperwork at the airport.

Who Needs an eTA & Requirements

You need a Canada eTA if you are a citizen of a visa-exempt country and plan to travel to Canada by air for tourism, business meetings, or transit. Each traveler, including children and infants, must have their own approved eTA.

Eligibility and basic requirements

  • Passport from a visa-exempt country.
  • Entry to Canada by air only.
  • Passport valid for the duration of your stay.
  • Apply while you are outside Canada.

Documents required

  • Valid passport.
  • Active email address.
  • Debit or credit card for fee payment.

Note: Travelers entering Canada by land or sea usually do not require an eTA but must meet standard entry requirements. If you are not eligible for an eTA, you may need to apply for a Canadian Visitor Visa.

How to Apply for the Canada eTA

Applying for your Canada eTA is quick and fully online. Follow these three steps:

Step 1: Complete the online application

Enter your personal and passport details exactly as shown on your passport to avoid delays.

Step 2: Pay the application fee

Pay securely using a valid debit or credit card.

Step 3: Receive your eTA confirmation

Most applications are approved within minutes, although some may take longer. Your eTA is electronically linked to your passport.

Validity and Conditions

The Canada eTA is generally valid for up to 5 years or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. It allows multiple entries to Canada during its validity period.

Each visit typically allows a stay of up to 6 months. The eTA does not permit paid work or long-term study. You must comply with Canadian immigration laws at all times.
