Canadian Border Information

Native-born citizens of the United States do not need a passport to enter Canada, however you must carry proof of citizenship: a birth or baptismal certificate, accompanied by photo ID will usually suffice. Proof of residence may also be required. Naturalized citizens should carry their naturalization certificate and U.S. resident aliens must have an Alien Registration Receipt Card (green card).

Due to concerns over child abduction, single parents, grandparents, or guardians traveling with a child should be prepared to document their legal custody and provide proof of citizenship for each child. When the child is only with one parent, that parent should have a notarized letter of consent from the other parent or legal custody documents. In other words, unless both parents are going, YOU need a notarized letter of consent from the other parent!!!

Persons with felony convictions, driving while intoxicated records, or other offenses may be denied admittance into Canada. Contact the Canadian Embassy if there may be a problem.

For those driving on their own, please consult your automobile insurance agent to obtain a free yellow Non-Resident Inter-Province Motor Vehicle Liability Insurance Card. There is a substantial fine imposed if you are stopped and do not have it in your possession. Vehicle registration cards are also required.

You may bring back to the U.S. goods up to $200 in value. Families may not combine their exemptions.
