🇨🇦 Canada visa requirements for Greek citizens
Greek citizens need an electronic travel authorization (eTA) for Canada — a quick online approval, not a full visa.
Entry rules for Greece passport holders
Canada requires Greek visitors to register online for an electronic travel authorization before departure. An eTA is lighter than a visa — approval is usually issued within minutes to hours — but airlines will deny boarding without it, so complete it before heading to the airport.
Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Canada immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.
