Do Italian citizens need a visa to enter Canada?

No, Italian nationals do not require a visa to visit Canada, according to Canadian visa regulations. Instead, they must apply online for a Canada eTA for Italians if they travel to Canada by air.

This takes only a few minutes. You just submit the necessary information in a brief form, and the eTA is validated by email immediately afterward (typically within 03 working hours at most).

The Canada eTA for Italian citizens permits visa-free stays of up to 6 months for the following purposes:

Holidays
Leisure
Visiting family
Business trips
Transit

Italians may require a Canadian visa for the following reasons:

Academic research
Working and living in Canada
Long-term stays (beyond 6 months)

In these cases, tourists can consult the Canadian Embassy in Rome or the consulate in Milan about the appropriate sort of Canada visa for Italian nationals.
