When individuals intend to visit Canada for a relatively short period, typically less than six months, they are required to obtain a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). Within the TRV category, there are various types available, depending on the purpose of the visit. One such type is the Canadian Visitor Visa, commonly referred to as a Tourist Visa for Canada. In most cases, travelers will need a Visitor Visa to gain entry to Canada, although nationals of certain countries may be eligible for an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA), while others are completely exempt and can enter Canada with their passports without the need for a visa.
To qualify for a Canada Tourist Visa, applicants must meet specific criteria. These requirements determine an individual’s eligibility to apply for and hold the visa. The Canadian Consulate makes a case-by-case decision regarding the duration for which the Tourist Visa will be granted. Sometimes, the visa is issued for the exact length of the intended visit, while in other cases, it may be valid until the expiration date of the passport. The decision is contingent upon the Consulate’s assessment of the applicant’s intention to return to their home country.
Regardless of the validity period of the Canada Tourist Visa, individuals are not permitted to stay in Canada for more than six months at a time. After the six-month period, they are required to return to their home country for a period before becoming eligible to visit Canada again for another six-month stay. Dependents, such as spouses and minor children, can accompany the visa holder to Canada by obtaining their own Tourist Visa. Each individual must submit a separate application and pay separate fees. It is recommended to submit the applications together at the Visa Application Center or online to ensure that the family unit is processed accordingly.
