Temporary Resident Visa Canada (TRV)
A Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) allows foreign nationals to enter Canada for a temporary stay. Whether you are visiting, extending your stay, or resolving a status issue, we help you prepare a strong application and avoid common mistakes.
OVERVIEW
What Is a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV)?
A Temporary Resident Visa (TRV), commonly known as a visitor visa, is an official document issued by the Government of Canada that allows you to travel to Canada for a temporary purpose.
This includes tourism, visiting family, or short-term business activities. A TRV is usually required for citizens of visa-required countries.
Who Needs a TRV?
You may need a Temporary Resident Visa if
- You are from a visa-required country
- You plan to visit Canada temporarily
- You need to re-enter Canada after travel
- Your current visa has expired and requires renewal
Eligibility depends on your nationality and travel purpose.
TRV vs Visitor Record
It is important to understand the difference:
- TRV (Visa): Allows you to enter Canada
- Visitor Record: Allows you to extend your stay inside Canada
Both serve different purposes, and choosing the correct one is essential for maintaining legal status.
