A Visitor Visa is an official document placed in your passport showing you meet Canada’s entry requirements. 

To obtain one, you must apply to IRCC and meet basic eligibility: have a valid passport, be in good health, have no criminal or immigration violations, and convince an officer that you have strong ties (job, home, family) in your country and intend to leave Canada when your visit ends. 

You must also have enough money for your stay. The application includes fees (currently CAD 100) and, for most applicants, a biometrics appointment (photo and fingerprints). Processing times vary by country. Once approved, you’ll receive a visa stamp or sticker in your passport, allowing travel to Canada.
