The Canada Urgent eTA can be useful for eligible travellers who need to travel to Canada soon and have not yet obtained their electronic travel authorisation. The standard eTA application is completed online, and many applications are processed quickly, but travellers should not assume that every application will be approved immediately. Some applications may require additional information or review. If your flight is approaching, apply as soon as possible and check your email regularly for messages from the Canadian authorities. Make sure your passport details are correct because errors can cause delays. Be careful with websites promising guaranteed approval or unrealistic processing times. An urgent application still has to meet Canada’s normal eligibility and admissibility requirements.
