Visa-freeOrdinary passport

Visa-free · Visa-free tourism up to 90 days under the shared CA-4 admission period; any extension is separate · A Canadian ordinary-passport holder does not need a tourist visa for Guatemala for a stay of up to 90 days. Guatemala participates in the CA-4 border-control area with El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua, so the period granted at first entry is shared across those countries and 90 days is a ceiling rather than an automatic fresh allowance at each border. The immigration officer determines the actual initial permission. An extension equal to the initially authorised period may be requested before expiry, but it is a separate decision and is not included in the canonical initial stay. Travellers must obtain an entry stamp and complete Guatemala's electronic declaration for arrival and departure.
