Visa request information : travelling to Canada
Since processing times for obtaining a Canadian visa are up to 200 days for some countries, we are no longer able to provide a letter of invitation to anyone from a country with this length of processing time. We are strongly encouraging you to register to participate virtually.
Creating a rewarding conferencing experience for both attendees joining physically in Montréal and those joining virtually is thus important to us !
Visitors entering Canada will be required to present a valid passport and, in some cases, a visa. Canada has also introduced a new requirement, known as the Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA), for entry for some international travelers flying to Canada. All visitors must ensure that they have all the necessary documents in their possession before entering the country.
To check and find out all the requirements for travelling to Canada from your place of residence, please visit Immigration and Citizenship Canada.
If you need a visa to enter in Canada, we strongly encourage you start the procedure right now as processing times can be very long.
Please register to the conference and say “Yes” to the question “Do you need a letter of support for your visa application to come to Canada?”
We will then provide you with the letter as well as a code that has to be used for your visa request once the registration form and payment have been received and validated by the Conference Secretariat at af2023@jpdl.com.
To know more about which visa you require to enter Canada and how to request a visa, please download and read carefully the below document.
