Visa & Entry

Mexican passport holders flying to Canada can apply for an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) if they hold a valid US non-immigrant visa or have held a Canadian visa in the past 10 years. The eTA costs CAD 7 and is processed within minutes. It covers air travel only.

If you don't meet those conditions, you need a Canadian visitor visa instead. Approved visitor visas are typically multiple-entry, valid for up to 10 years. The eTA does not apply to land or sea crossings. Those require a visitor visa regardless.
