Ebola outbreak response - the Government of Canada intends to suspend immigration documents for residents of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda and South Sudan. This will mean that even those with a previously approved temporary resident visa, electronic travel authorization (eTA) or permanent resident visa will not be allowed to travel to Canada while their immigration document is suspended. The government also intends to pause making decisions on applications for these documents from residents of these countries.
There are also quarantine requirements for Canadian citizens and permanent residents returning from these countries.
