Travelling in Canada
There’s so much to see and do in Canada that you could easily spend a few months travelling from end to end and still not see everything.
This Canada travel guide helps answer any questions you have about travelling here, including where to go, the length of a flight to Canada and whether you need a visa.
Before we start looking at where exactly to visit, we want to take you through the visa requirements needed for Canada.
British Citizens, British Overseas Citizens (who are re-admissible to the UK), British Subjects and British Dependent Territories Citizens DO NOT need a visa to go on holiday in Canada.
British Overseas Citizens who are subject to control under the (UK) Immigration Act, 1971 still require a Canadian visa for travel to Canada.
If you do not normally require a visa to enter Canada (e.g. British Citizens), you will need to get an eTA. Visit the list of eTA-required countries here. Some exemptions will apply e.g. US citizens and visitors with a valid Visa. It allows Canada to screen travellers before they arrive. The authorization is electronically linked to your passport and is valid for five years or until your passport expires, whichever comes first.
Therefore, you must travel with the passport that you applied for your eTA with. You can enter Canada as many times within the validity of the eTA for this one fee.
- Visitors simply apply online in a process that takes just a few minutes. All you need is your passport, a credit card, access to the internet and an email address.
- In most cases, the eTA will be granted within minutes of applying.
- The cost to apply for an eTA is $7 (CAD) per person which is paid at the time of application.
