Do Singapore passport holders need a visa to visit Canada?

Singapore passport holders are visa-exempt for Canada but must obtain an electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) before flying. The eTA costs CAD 7, is usually approved in minutes, and permits tourist stays of up to 6 months. Singapore ordinary passport holders do not need a visitor visa for short tourist stays in Canada. Singapore is on Canada's visa-exempt list, so travelers instead need an electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) when arriving or transiting by air. The eTA is applied for online through the official IRCC website, costs CAD 7, and is electronically linked to your passport. Most applications are approved within minutes, though some can take several days if documents are requested. An approved eTA is valid for up to 5 years or until the passport expires, whichever comes first, and allows multiple entries with stays of up to 6 months each as determined by the border officer. No eTA is required if entering Canada by land or sea (car, bus, train, or boat/cruise), though you still must carry a valid passport. Travelers must satisfy a border services officer that they have sufficient funds and will leave Canada at the end of their visit.
