PASSPORTS AND VISAS
To enter Canada, a passport, passport card, or NEXUS card is required by citizens
and permanent residents of the United States. For further information, see the website ht-
tp://travel.state.gov . For current entry requirements to Canada, check the Citizenship and
Immigration Canada website ( www.cic.gc.ca ).
All other foreign visitors must have a valid passport and may need a visa or visitors per-
mit depending on their country of residence and the vagaries of international politics. At
present, visas are not required for citizens of the United States, British Commonwealth, or
Western Europe. The standard entry permit is for six months, and you may be asked to show
onward tickets or proof of sufficient funds to last you through your intended stay.
Transportation
Visitors to British Columbia have the option of arriving by road, rail, ferry, or air. The
main gateway city for flights from North America is Vancouver, which is also the main
Canadian gateway for flights originating in Asia and the South Pacific.
