To find out if you require a TRV or eTA to enter Canada, visit the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada website. 

How do I apply?

The application for an electronic travel authorization (eTA) is online on the Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada website.  

What are the processing times?
