It’s important, with all the recent changes to border security, to know what passport information you need to show when entering Canada. To dispel any confusion, we’ve added a page outlining what you need to bring with you when you’re crossing the border.
One important fact is that flying into Canada doesn’t require your actual passport if you haven’t yet received the new version that’s been created to increase border security. The receipt given to you after you’ve applied for a new passport is just as good as a full passport; showing it to the border guard provides proper identification and tells the guard that your new passport is simply pending. If you’re driving into Canada, all you need is proof of ID; passports are not yet required for this form of entry. Carrying additional identification is always recommended to speed up the process and make sure all basses are covered.
