Canadian Visas & eTA
Workshop participants holding Russian passports will need a visa to enter Canada. Individuals who wish to attend the Workshop are responsible for obtaining the Canadian visa before their travel.
Workshop participants holding Japanese and Korean passports will need to apply for an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) before traveling to Canada. The application and payment of a fee for eTA (C$7.00) can be made online. The processing of eTA applications usually takes about 72 hours. Applicants will receive an e-mail notification once their applications are processed.
