VISA AND PASSPORT

All WUF3 participants must have a valid passport and/or an appropriate travel document to enter Canada. Some participants may also require a visa. For more information on what is needed to come to Canada, click here. You can also visit the Canada Border Services Agency.

It is strongly recommended that if you require a visa, you apply at least one month in advance to ensure you receive your visa in time for travel.

When submitting a visa application to the nearest Canadian visa office, ensure that the application form is complete, including all relevant supporting documentation. To obtain a visa application form, visit the nearest Canadian Embassy, High Commission or Consulate or get the application form by clicking here.

Health costs
Canada does not pay for hospital or medical services for visitors. Make sure you have health insurance to pay for any medical costs you may incur in Canada.

Tips
Once you arrive, an officer will ask you a few short questions. To make this go quickly, keep your passport with you and not in your luggage. The officer will stamp your passport or advise you how long you may stay in Canada. Feel free to ask questions if you are unsure about anything.
