Canada maximum tourist stay

[RickG16]

As a UK national, anyone know how many days I will get when visiting Canada by air? Is it worth me going to the Canadian embassy in BKK and getting a visa?

 

I might stay for up to 3 months.

 

And also, if I need more time, does anyone know how strict they are on flying out and flying back in? 

 

Cheers

First of all you will need to apply for an eTA (Electronic Travel Authorisation) before you can travel to Canada by air.

You can apply here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/eta/apply.html?lnktrk=eta_required

It is up to the border services officer at the arrival airport as to how long you will be allowed to stay, but normally an entry of 6 months is allowed, you can request an extension of stay no later than 30 days before the authorised stay ends.
