Engage in Business Activities with a Visitor Visa

A Business Visitor Visa allows you to enter Canada for a temporary period to engage in international business activities. It's important to note that business visitors do not enter the Canadian labour market and remain employed and paid by their company outside Canada.

Permitted Business Activities

There are many reasons you might come to Canada as a business visitor, including:

• Attending conferences, conventions, fairs, or board of directors meetings.
• Handling after-sales services as part of a warranty or sales agreement.
• Supervising the installation or dismantling of equipment purchased outside Canada.
• Receiving training from a Canadian parent company for work outside Canada.
