A limited alternative exists for eligible Thai citizens travelling by air: a traveller who meets Canada's conditions, including qualifying Canadian-visa history within the past 10 years or a current valid United States nonimmigrant visa, may apply for an eTA instead; this alternative does not apply to arrival by car, bus, train or boat. Most admitted visitors may stay up to six months, but the border officer may allow a shorter or longer period and the entry stamp or visitor record controls. Visa validity must not be confused with authorised stay.. Always confirm final entry requirements with the destination authority before travel.
