Canada will require a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA), depending on nationality, for international fans attending the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with officials urging early applications to avoid processing delays. Unlike previous tournaments, there will be no special Fan ID system to expedite entry. Canadian immigration authorities are preparing for the influx of visitors, but warn that standard visa procedures will remain in place. With matches scheduled across three North American countries, each with distinct entry requirements, fans planning to follow teams across borders face additional logistical challenges. Early visa applications are strongly recommended.
