5/5 - (3 votes)

Canadians love to travel and explore the world and the Canadian passport makes it easy for them to visit the four corners of the globe. Thanks to the Canadian passport, which is the fifth most powerful in the world according to Henley Passport Index, more than 100 countries across the globe offer visa-free entry to Canadians. And, many of these nations are some of the top-rated tourist spots in the world.

Some popular destinations where visas are not required are France and its territories, Germany, Greece, Belgium, the United States, South Africa, Spain, Bahamas, New Zealand, Morocco, Iceland, Japan etc. Apart from these, there are many other amazing nations where travel for Canadians is visa-free.

There are a couple of nations that do not allow Canadians a visa-free entry but do make their travel much convenient by offering them visa on arrival. Some of these nations are Ethiopia, Egypt, Zimbabwe, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Nepal, Lebanon, Laos, Qatar, Cambodia, and some others. In these countries, Canadian travelers can obtain their visa upon landing at the destination.

There are a few nations that offer Canadians e-visas. These are official documents which the immigration department of the concerned country issues online to allow the traveler to either enter or leave the nation. Some nations that fall in this category are Turkey, Bahrain, Azerbaijan, Myanmar, Kuwait, Kenya, India, and a few others.


However, there are still some nations where traveling for Canadians is a bit cumbersome as here they are required to go through the process of applying for a visa.
