Visit Canada as a Tourist
Canada is a popular destination for tourists and travel enthusiasts from around the world. You may wish to visit Canada as a tourist, to see family and friends, or to do business. Before you start planning your trip there may be few things you might want to consider. Depending on your country of origin or citizenship you may be required to apply for a visitor visa or if you are from a visa exempt country or just transiting through Canada you may need an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA).
Additionally, whether you plan on visiting Canada for a few days or several months, you must meet some important immigration requirements laid out in Canada’s Immigration Laws. At Globus, we will assist you by assessing your file, making sure that you meet the requirements and completing your application.

If you are from a visa exempt country you must obtain an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA). Business visitors can conduct meetings and pursue business relations in Canada without the need of obtaining a work permit.
