More about eTA to Canada
ETA is valid for 5 years from the issuing date, or until your passport expires. Whichever comes first. It is a multiple-entry visa, which means that you can travel to Canada numerous times within the validity period.
The processing time can take up to 72 hours, though usually, eTA is approved within a couple of minutes. The cost of eTA is 49 Euro only.
ETA allows tourists to visit Canada for tourism, business and transit purposes. However, please note that it is not a working permit.
Requirements and required documents
There are only a few requirements to meet for Swedish citizens to meet before applying:
- a valid passport (passport validity has to exceed at least 6 months ahead of the trip)
- an active e-mail address (onto which eTA and its’ confirmation number is sent)
- a clean criminal record (you can still apply having some non-serious offences on your account, e.g., a speeding ticket does not count)
How to apply?
The application process consists of only three simple steps:
- Apply Online: fill in an online application form, provide your data, passport details, the purpose for your travel, and your e-mail address.
- Register an online payment: pay the handling visa charges using a credit or debit card. Or any other method of payment available on our website.
- Check your e-mail: once your payment is registered, you will receive a confirmation number onto your e-mail address. You can check the status of your eTA processing using this number. Within the next 72 hours, you will receive your eTA permit in your e-mail box as well.
Please note that the processing time may be longer when your situation is unclear. E.g., when your criminal record is not clear, and you have to send in some additional documents.
Why should you visit Canada?
Get to know some of the most famous attractions of Canada before travelling there:
- Canada has the longest coastline in the world, 202,080 km, and within its vast landscape there is an icy corner that looks like a dream with its white frost, and it is the ice capital- Quebec.
- the Hôtel de Glace, a place that only stays open and standing for 3 to 4 months (December-March). Guests can rest on a bed made of a block of ice, covered with fur or wood to help them keep warm.
Visit it with friends or alone with a Canadian visa for Swedish citizens. It is both beautiful and ephemeral, as this monument will disappear from the first rays of springtime sunshine.
- Some natural attractions include the Banff National Park created in 1885, full of some beautiful wild nature sites.
- Some architectural wonders, like the CN Tower, where you can enjoy a spectacular meal in the restaurant on top.
All of that and so much more, waits for you to discover it. Wait no more, apply for eTA now!
