Important Notes

Afghan citizens require a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) to enter Canada. The application process is complex and subject to strict scrutiny. Processing times can be very long and vary significantly based on the applicant's specific circumstances, the type of visa, and the volume of applications. Due to the situation in Afghanistan, applying from outside the country is often necessary, and specific instructions may apply. The visa application fee is 100 CAD (approximately 73 USD) for a single entry or multiple entry visa, plus a biometrics fee of 85 CAD (approximately 62 USD). This information is subject to change by Canadian immigration authorities.
