Overview
About the Canada visa for Indians
Indian citizens need a Temporary Resident Visa, commonly called a visitor visa, to travel to Canada. Applications are made online through Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), after which applicants give biometrics at a visa application centre in India. If approved, you submit your passport for the visa counterfoil. Canada may issue multiple-entry visitor visas valid for several years, and the border officer decides the length of each stay, often up to six months. Processing times vary considerably through the year.
Audvik helps you build a clear and complete file. We identify the right visa category, review your finances, employment and family ties, write a strong covering letter, complete the IRCC forms and book your biometrics appointment. We monitor your application and guide you through passport submission after approval. We can also arrange flights, hotels, travel insurance and Canada holiday packages, including trips to Toronto, Vancouver and Banff.

Important things to know
- Biometrics are usually valid for 10 years; if you gave them recently for Canada, you may not need to repeat them.
- Explain your purpose and ties to India clearly; IRCC officers focus on whether you will leave Canada at the end of your visit.
- Super Visa applicants must show valid Canadian medical insurance and meet the host's income requirement.
- Every decision rests with IRCC, so keep travel bookings refundable until your visa is issued.

Canada visa FAQs
Do Indians need a visa for Canada?
Yes, Indian passport holders need a visitor visa, also called a Temporary Resident Visa, to travel to Canada. The application is made online with IRCC, followed by biometrics at a visa application centre and passport submission if the visa is approved.
How long does a Canada visitor visa take from India?
Processing times change frequently and can range from a few weeks to a few months, depending on demand and your case. IRCC publishes current estimates online. We recommend applying at least two to three months before your trip to allow for biometrics and passport submission.
What is the Canada Super Visa?
The Super Visa lets parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents stay for up to five years per entry. Applicants need an invitation and financial support letter from the host, a medical exam and valid Canadian health insurance, subject to current IRCC rules.
Can I extend my stay in Canada?
Yes, you can apply online to extend your status as a visitor before your authorised stay ends. You must show a genuine reason and enough funds. Approval is not guaranteed, so apply well in advance and keep your travel plans flexible.
