Do I need a passport to get into Canada by car?
Yes, you need a passport to enter Canada by car, regardless of your nationality. It must be valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry. For U.S. citizens, an Enhanced Driver’s License (EDL) or a U.S. Passport Card can also be used for land travel.
If you are a citizen of another country, you may need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) depending on your nationality. It’s crucial to check the specific entry requirements for your country before you travel. Some travelers may also need to show proof of onward travel or sufficient funds for their stay.
When you arrive at the border, be prepared to answer questions from border officials regarding your travel plans and the purpose of your visit. Having your vehicle registration and proof of insurance handy will help facilitate the process.
If you are eligible to travel to Canada by air, we highly recommend that you apply for a Canada eTA via our website. The Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) is a simple and efficient way for citizens of visa-exempt countries to gain entry into Canada. The application process is straightforward, requiring just a valid passport, an email address, and a credit or debit card.
