Visitor's Visas:
Visitors to Canada require a valid passport. You may require a Visitor's Visa to enter Canada. Please refer to the Government of Canada website for instructions on how and who needs to apply for a Visitor's Visa to enter Canada.
US citizens carrying a valid US Passport do not require a visa to come to Canada. Residents of the US who carry a passport from a country listed on the Government of Canada site will need an Invitation Letter from the Conference Chair to attach to the Visitor's Visa Application.
Please give yourself sufficient time for processing. Estimated processing times are listed here.
Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA):
As of March 15th, 2016, any delegates from visa-exempt countries will need to apply for an eTA (electronic Travel Authorization) before then can board a flight to Canada. The eTA costs C$7.00 and allows for pre-screening of visa exempt nationals. Please check here for details related to the eTA.
