Do I need to apply for both a visitor visa and an eTA?

The answer is NO. You need a valid visitor visa OR a valid eTA if you wish to visit Canada.

eTA (Electronic Travel Authorization) has been a mandatory entry requirement for visa-exempt foreign citizens who wish to visit Canada by air. It serves as a visa waiver document.

Although the Canada eTA has almost the same purpose as a visa, the process for obtaining one is very different from obtaining a traditional visa. Applying for a traditional Canada visitor visa is a more time-consuming process, but for eTA, you just need to fill out a simple eTA application form in minutes. The process does not require any paperwork and is easy to complete. Moreover, eTA costs are much cheaper than the traditional visa. You can obtain an eTA within your budget.

Our visa experts highly recommend that you apply in advance to avoid problems arising. In addition, you should buy Canada travel insurance to help keep your trip safe and limit unexpected risks.
