Types of Visas to Visit Canada
Canada offers a variety of visa options to cater to different needs and circumstances. Each visa type provides a unique pathway for short-term or long-term visits, and, in some cases, immigration to Canada. Here is an overview of the primary visas available:
Business Visitors
Purpose: Allows business professionals to engage in work-related activities without a work permit.
Impact: Supports economic interactions and global partnerships.
Who Can Apply: Business professionals attending conferences, meetings, or exploring business opportunities.
Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA)
Purpose: Simplifies the entry process for visa-exempt foreign nationals flying to or transiting through Canada.
Impact: Streamlines entry for millions, enhancing tourism and business travel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a single-entry and a multiple-entry visitor visa?
While a multiple-entry visa permits you to enter and exit Canada on many occasions during its validity (up to 10 years or one month prior to the expiration of your passport, whichever comes first), a single-entry visa only permits you to enter Canada once.
Do I need a visa if I'm just travelling through Canada on my way to another country?
This will depend on your situation. Typically, visa-required travelers will require a visitor visa even if they are just transiting through Canada.
How can I extend my stay as a visitor in Canada?
To extend your stay, you need to apply for a visitor record before your current status expires. This will allow to extend your stay as a visitor, or as a worker/student authorized to work/study without a permit.
What are the main requirements for obtaining a Canada Visitor Visa?
Key requirements include having a valid passport, clearly stating your purpose of visit, providing proof of financial support, demonstrating ties to your home country, having no criminal record, and possibly undergoing a medical examination.
What is Express Entry and how does it work for immigrating to Canada?
Express Entry is Canada’s primary system to handle all applications of skilled worker immigration. After creating an online profile, candidates are ranked according to their age, level of education, employment history, and language proficiency. The top applicants are encouraged to submit applications for permanent residence.
