Entry guide for international students in Canada

For students who apply to study in Canada, it must be their first time to study abroad. So are you clear about the procedures for entering Canada? What circumstances prevent entry into Canada? Let’s take a look at the 2019 Entry Guide for Studying in Canada.

First, let’s take a look at the immigration process.

Fill out the customs declaration form

I believe many students have experienced outbound travel. When the plane is about to arrive at the destination, the flight attendant will ask everyone to fill in the customs declaration form. It mainly involves your own personal information and related customs declaration materials, and you must declare them truthfully. The customs declaration form will have four parts A, B, C, and D. As an international student, you only need to fill in these three parts: A (personal information and customs declaration materials), B (required for non-PR or citizens), and D (personal signature). .

Customs clearance

You can exchange for a study permit at Canada’s three major international airports, namely Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal. After getting off the plane, there will be signs to go to the customs reception desk (customs). There will be rows of uniformed staff at the reception desk. At this time, hand them the customs declaration form you just wrote on the plane and ask some simple questions. : Such as "Where are you from" and "How long do you plan to stay in Canada?" Then they will stamp your passport and mark it on the customs declaration form, return everything to you, and inform the immigration office at the airport. ).

Change the study permit

You can also find the Immigration Bureau through the signs and find the staff here to apply for the study permit. Required basic materials: passport (visa page), school offer, proof of funds, etc. If you are afraid of missing something, put all these materials together in advance for easy presentation.

Collect your luggage

After getting the study permit, you can go to the baggage check-in area to pick up your luggage. There is a luggage trolley at the exit, which requires 2 Canadian dollars coins, or You can hire someone to carry your luggage for 10 Canadian dollars. There is a special charging place for this 10 Canadian dollars after you exit the airport. Of course, you have to give a tip. Before you get your luggage and prepare to go to the exit, you will see a uniformed staff member. You need to give him the tax return form that was marked at the customs reception desk. Under normal circumstances, you only collect the header and you can go out. If necessary If you want to check it carefully, you can only open the luggage for inspection. No matter what the situation is, as long as the verification is correct, you can successfully exit. At this time, it can be said that the success is as low as Canada.

Next, let’s take a look at the entry precautions.

1. The main situations where Canada blocks entry are:

(1) People whose health is seriously impaired or suffering from certain infectious diseases;

(2 ) Those who are unable or unwilling to support themselves, have insufficient funds or lack of means of living, and may become a burden to the public;

(3) Those who are being prosecuted for crimes, and those who are accused of different cases;

(4) As far as Canada knows, those who engage in espionage or subvert a democratic government may enter the country to engage in or subvert any government by force, which may endanger national security;

(5) Engage in violent activities , endangering the lives or safety of Canadians, social order, or violating public interests;

(6) Those who have committed major crimes or engaged in organized crime are on the Canadian government's blacklist prohibited from entry. Criminals wanted by the International Criminal Police Organization;

(7) Using forged passports, visas, entry permits or other documents;

(8) Previously breaking the law in Canada or who committed a crime and were deported;

(9) Those who entered the country in the name of tourism instead of real tourists.

2. The main situations of deportation in Canada are:

(2) Being sentenced for breaking the law while living in Canada;

(3) Entering Canada using false documents or forged documents;

(4) Entering Canada with an immigrant visa with additional conditions but failing to fulfill the promise. If it takes 2 years to successfully start a business Immigrants and immigrants who need to get married within 90 days.

1. Firearms and weapons:

Of course, you must declare to CBSA as soon as you enter Canada, and other matters are omitted.

2. Food, plants, animals and related products:

All foods, plants, animals and related items must be declared one by one. If you fail to declare it, in addition to your items being confiscated by the CBSA, you may also face fines or even prosecution.

Plants such as fruits, vegetables, potted plants and even soil and soil analogs contained in plants are restricted and prohibited and must be confiscated, destroyed or disposed of as determined by DBSA.

Such items are restricted or prohibited because they may carry foreign biological pests and diseases and microorganisms that cause human disease. For example, food may introduce Escherichia coli infection diseases, and plants and plant products may carry alien invasive species such as those from Asia. Long-horned beetles, animals and animal products can carry diseases such as avian influenza and foot-and-mouth disease. This endangers the health of Canadians, animals and plants.

3. Explosives, fireworks and ammunition:

Needless to say, for "fireworks and firecrackers", you need written authorization and permission from the "relevant departments".

4. Vehicles:

Including any vehicle such as cars, pickup trucks, snowmobiles and RVs, etc., as long as they are used for non-commercial purposes. There are many, many regulations for vehicle importation.

5. Consumer products:

Some consumer products may endanger the public (such as baby walkers and agar beans commonly found in art and bead jewelry) and are therefore prohibited of. Canadian residents should be aware that Canada has safety requirements for consumer products, many of which are more stringent than those in other countries.
