加拿大(Canada) 前往 捷克(Czechia) 签证要求

Canadian ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa to visit Czechia for tourism. You can enter visa-free and stay up to 90 days within any 180-day period across the entire Schengen Area. ETIAS travel authorization is expected to become mandatory in late 2026 but is not yet required as of May 2026. Czechia is part of the EU Schengen Area, and Canada holds a visa-waiver arrangement with the Schengen states. As a result, Canadian citizens holding ordinary, official, or diplomatic passports may enter and stay in the Czech Republic without a visa for short, non-gainful visits of up to 90 days in any rolling 180-day period. This 90-day allowance is cumulative across ALL Schengen countries, not Czechia alone, so days spent in other Schengen states (France, Germany, Italy, etc.) count against the same limit. The passport must be valid for at least three months beyond the intended departure from Schengen territory. While no visa is needed, Czech rules formally require travelers to be able to show pre-arranged accommodation, travel medical insurance covering at least EUR 30,000, and proof of sufficient funds; border officers may request these. Visitors staying in private (non-hotel) accommodation for more than three days must register with the Foreign Police within three working days (hotels do this automatically). Two EU systems affect this route: the Entry/Exit System (EES), which began operating in October 2025 and biometrically registers non-EU travelers at the border (no advance action needed), and ETIAS, a pre-travel online authorization (EUR 20, valid 3 years) expected to launch in the last quarter of 2026 — once live, visa-exempt travelers including Canadians will need an approved ETIAS before boarding. As of 30 May 2026, ETIAS is not yet in force, so the route remains purely visa-free.
