Entry Formalities for Canada

U.S. born citizens should have a passport or a birth certificate plus photo I.D.; citizens require naturalization certificates with photo I.D.; permanent residents (who are not citizens) need the alien registration card (green card).

Visitors from countries other than the U.S. must have a valid passport, and a visa may be required. For additional information regarding visas, please visit the website for Citizenship and Immigration Canada at www.cic.gc.ca. Please note that the $75.00 processing fee has been waived. You can also consult the nearest Canadian embassy, high commission, consulate, customs agent, or your travel agent.

You should allow a minimum of 30 days for visa delivery.
