Chattogram, Bangladesh, 23rd February 2024, Citizens of Brunei Darussalam must apply for a Canada eTA visa to enter Canada on short notice for general tourism, business, transit, or medical purposes.

Accepted visitors may enter the country up to five times in five years, for a maximum stay of six months each. Bruneians seeking to travel to Canada for work, education, permanent residency, or other reasons requiring a stay of more than six months can apply for a variety of Canadian visas. Citizens of Brunei can apply for a Canadian eTA (Electronic Travel Authorization) from home or office by accessing the online application from any electronic device connected to the internet.
What are the requirements to obtain a Canada ETA?
- Valid passport – don’t try to apply for a Canada ETA if your passport doesn’t have a validation of 6 more months from the date of arrival in the country of Canada.
- Email – you will receive all the information about your ETA in this email. So, ensure that you provide a valid e-mail without typing errors, and don’t forget that once you get your ETA, print it and keep it with you always.

Cypriots, like those from the rest of the European Union, do not require a visa to enter Canada. However, you must apply for a Canadian ETA. The Canadian eTA, issued by the Canadian government in August 2015, is a requirement for all visitors to Canada. Cypriots must apply for a Canada eTA visa to enter the country for tourism, business, transit, or medical reasons. This e-Visa authorization is valid for five years from the date of issue, or until your passport expires. Because this is a multiple-entry visa, you may visit Canada as many times as you want during the validity period. However, a stay of no more than six months is permitted. When the eTA is approved, it is electronically linked to the traveler’s passport. If you cannot go back to your home country within 180 days, you need to apply for a visitor record to extend your stay in Canada. Apply now, complete an online application form that takes less than 15 minutes and travel to Canada.

Whatever your reason for visiting Canada, keep in mind that Finnish citizens require either a visa waiver or a visa to legally enter the country. Finnish citizens, like many other nationalities, do not need to obtain a visa to visit Canada for a short period of time. This is because Finnish citizens do not have to obtain a visa. In 2016, the Canadian government implemented the Canadian eTA for Finnish nationals, which can be obtained through a simple online application, eliminating the need to apply in person at an embassy. Finnish citizens must apply for a Canada eTA visa for short-term travel to Canada for general tourism, business, transit, or medical treatment. An approved eTA for Canada is a multiple entry travel authorization allowing a total stay of up to 6 months with each entry. Once your Canadian electronic Permit has been issued, it will automatically be ‘linked’ to your Finnish passport. The good thing about the new Canadian eTA is that it is valid for five years (or until your passport expires, whichever comes first). The process of obtaining a Canadian eTA takes less than 30 minutes online, so there is no need to visit an embassy or meet in person. Travelers can have their visa waiver approved in minutes.
