Visa & Entry

Canadian citizens enter Iceland and the Schengen area visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period. ETIAS travel authorization will be required once the EU system launches in late 2026. Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure from the Schengen zone. Iceland is in Schengen but not the EU, so EU residency rules do not apply.

Verify entry requirements with official sources before travel.
