Visa information Canada A visa for
Canada is a document, a stamp in your
passport or a sticker in your passport that
shows that you are authorized to enter or
leave Canada. A visa for Canada is subjective
to permission for entering or leaving Canada
from an immigration official at the time of
the actual entry into Canada. A visa is
issued by the embassy or consulate of Canada
in your home country.
A visa for Canada does not give you the
absolute right to enter Canada. It gives you
only the authorization. An immigration
official when you enter Canada always has the
final right to decide if you are allowed to
enter or not. A visa can also be revoked at
any time.
For persons from certain countries do not
require a visa for Canada, such as when
certain countries have reciprocal visa
treaty arrangements with Canada.
The visa for Canada always has various
conditions of stay. This can be -among
others- maximum period of stay, the dates of
validity, validity for amount of visits,
purpose of visit etc.
A visa for Canada generally gives
non-citizens clearance to enter Canada and to
remain there within the various conditions
mentioned for the specific visa.
A visa application in advance at one of the
embassies or consulates of Canada around the
world gives the government of Canada a chance
to consider your circumstance, such as
reason for applying, details of previous
visits to Canada and financial security.
Sometimes a visa can be applied for through
a visa service company which specialized in
the issuance of visa for Canada and other
international travel documents. When this is
the case the embassy or consulate of Canada
in your home country can inform you about
the possibilities to use such an authorized
visa service company.
In the case that there is no embassy or
consulate of Canada in your home country you
than have to travel to a neighboring country
which does have an embassy or consulate of
Canada and try to apply for your visa there.
Sometimes it is also possible to apply per
post.. |

-
Visas can be for multiple entries into

-

Visa’s which permits you double or
multiple entries into the host country
or territory with the same visa.
-
Some countries sometimes also issue
re-entry permits. A re-entry permit
allows you to temporarily leave the
country without invalidating your
current visa.
-
In most cases a business visa will
normally not allow you to engage in
working in the host country without an
additional obtained work permit.
-
For some countries, the authorized
period of stay of a visa is not the same
as the validity of the visa.
For example, when a visa has been issued
to start at April 1 and to expire on
July 1, and the authorized period of
stay is 90 days, then the 90-day
authorized stay begins when you enter
the country (the entrance must be
between April 1 and July 1). Thus, the
latest day you could stay in the country
is maximum 90 days from the date you
entered the country within the validity
period of April 1 to July 1. So if you
enter the country on May 1 you can not
stay the maximum authorized 90 days
since you have to leave the country on
July 1.
-
Even when you have a visa, this does not
guarantee you that you may entry the
host country. The immigration at the
border crossing will make the final
determination to allow you to enter or
not. They can even cancel your visa at
the border if you ar not able to
demonstrate to their satisfaction that
you will abide by the status the visa
granted to you.
