Entry requirements

United States entry requirements for Canadians

Do Canadians need a visa for United States?

No visa for tourism/business as a Canadian citizen. ESTA is not required for Canadians; a valid passport is. If you stay 30 days or more and were not issued a Form I-94, you must register with USCIS online (Form G-325R, no fee) — this applies to most land-border entries and to snowbirds; failure to register can mean fines or prosecution. Canadians are exempt from fingerprinting.

Valid Canadian passport required. Always confirm on the official source before you travel.
