Do German citizens need a visa for Canada?

No, Germany is a visa-free country and only requires an eTA for short visits (180 days per entry). German citizens must have a Canadian eTA linked to their passport if they plan to enter the country by air. German travelers must alternatively register online using the Canadian eTA system.

The Canada eTA application takes only a few minutes, and the travel permission is given by email immediately afterward (typically within 24 hours). Visiting an embassy is unnecessary, as with a visa application.

According to the Canada visa requirements for German citizens, people only need a visa for the following reasons:

Tourism
Leisure
Business
Visiting family and friends
Transit
