CBSA shared crucial travel tips for soccer fans visiting Canada
Canada is getting ready to welcome millions of soccer fans for the massive tournament starting in June. The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) released essential guidelines to help international visitors experience a smooth entry into the country. Officials remind all travellers that a game ticket does not guarantee automatic entry into Canada. Visitors must carry a valid passport and obtain the correct visa before starting their journey. People arriving by air can submit their customs declarations up to three days early using a digital app. Drivers should check border wait times online and look for alternative routes to avoid heavy traffic on game days.
