Do Portugese Citizens Require a Canada eTA?
Yes. Portuguese citizens must apply for a Canada eTA visa in order to enter Canada for a short period of time (less than 90 days) for general tourist, business, transit, or medical purposes. This only applies to travelers arriving by plane on a commercial or charter journey. The eTA program was launched in 2016 in response to the global surge in terrorist activity, to safeguard Canada's borders and to give real-time data on all passengers entering Canada.
Citizens of Portugal, as well as other European Union members, are required to submit an electronic visa application prior to boarding an aircraft bound for Canada, and this includes visitors who will simply be transiting through Canada en route to other foreign destinations.
