Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA)

The eTA is a document that allows you to travel in Canada by plane and to travel freely inside the country. It is an entry requirement for visa-exempt foreign nationals travelling to or transiting through Canada by air. Applying for an eTA is a simple online process. You should apply for an eTA before you book your flight. For more information about the process, see the Electronic travel authorization (eTA).

To check the entry requirements by country/territory, see the following link.
