Important Notes

Albanian citizens require a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) to enter Canada. The processing time can vary significantly based on the applicant's location and the volume of applications. It's recommended to check the official IRCC website for the most up-to-date processing times and detailed requirements. The visa fee is 100 CAD (approximately 75 USD) for a single entry or multiple entry visa, plus a 85 CAD (approximately 64 USD) biometrics fee. The validity of the visa is at the discretion of the immigration officer, but it can be issued for up to 10 years or one month before your passport expires, whichever comes first. The maximum stay allowed per visit is typically 6 months, but this is determined by the Border Services Officer upon arrival.
