Update for Mexican citizens who want to visit Canada!

Good news is that you do not need a visitor visa if you –

  • hold a valid US non-immigrant visa, or
  • have held a Canadian visa in the past 10 years and are travelling by air on a Mexican passport.

New requirements to be eligible for an eTA:

  • if you already have an eTA, it will automatically be cancelled unless you also have a valid work or study permit
  • if you have an eTA application in progress, you will need to apply for a new eTA or for a visitor visa
  • before you travel to Canada, you will need to apply for a new eTA (if eligible)

If you are not eligible for an eTA anymore, you will need to apply for a visitor visa to travel to Canada.
