Travelling to Canada and the United States

All persons travelling to or transiting through Canada or the United states require a travel visa and  a passport that is valid for the period of intended stay. Please note not all passports are eligible and for any special circumstances please talk to an Active Travel Expert.

USA Travel/Stopover/Transit:

All persons travelling to, or transiting through the USA must complete an ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorisation) Visa Waiver Application. This application must be completed at least 72 hours prior to departure. Failure to do so may result in denied boarding, delayed processing or denied admission to the USA. Information and the application form, can be found HERE 

Canada Travel/Stopover/Transit:

All persons travelling to, or transiting through Canada must complete an ETA (Electronic Travel Authorisation). This application must be completed at least 72 hours prior to departure. Failure to do so may result in denied boarding, delayed processing or denied admission to Canada.
Information and the application form, can be found HERE 

Please note, if you are a dual Canadian citizen with a non-Canadian passport, you must have a Canadian passport to be able to board your flight. If your country needs you to enter and exit that country using a passport issued by its government, you will still need a valid Canadian passport to board your flight to enter/depart Canada. Make sure to carry both passports when you travel.

Passports

Don’t forget to check that your passport is valid! For most countries a minimum of six months validity is required beyond your intended stay.
