FAQ
As of April 26, 2022, lawful permanent residents of the U.S. must show the following documents for all methods of travel to Canada: a valid passport from their country of nationality (or an equivalent acceptable travel document) and. a valid green card (or equivalent valid proof of status in the United States)
Can I travel outside the U.S. with a green card? Yes, you can travel abroad as a green card holder — that's one of the many benefits of being a permanent resident. However, your trip must be temporary and you cannot remain outside the United States for more than 1 year.
Permanent residents (PR) of Canada must carry and show their valid permanent resident card (PR card) or permanent resident travel document (PRTD) when boarding a flight to Canada, or travelling to Canada on any other commercial carrier.
Most travellers need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to fly to, or transit through, a Canadian airport. Before you apply, find out what you need to travel to Canada.

If you're outside Canada without a valid PR card, you need to apply for a permanent resident travel document (PRTD). For example, if your PR card expires or is lost, stolen or damaged while you're outside Canada, you need a PRTD to enter Canada by commercial vehicle (airplane, bus, boat or train).
The processing times for PRTDs vary depending on the country. In general, it can take anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks. However, in some cases, the processing time may exceed eight weeks.
To apply you must have a valid passport from a visa-exempt country, a valid credit card and an email address. It costs $7 CAD to get an eTA and only takes a few minutes to apply.
Standard pick-up: You must pick up your passport in person at this location. It will be ready in 10 business days.
If you are requesting expedited processing of a travel document, you generally need to apply for and obtain the document before you leave the United States. You should make your expedite request on your pending application at least 45 days before you plan to leave the United States.
