How to apply for a Canada ETA as a Bulgarian citizen

Planning a trip from Bulgaria to Canada? As a Bulgarian citizen, you’ll need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) before flying to Canada.

Applying through our platform makes the process simple, fast, and reliable. Here’s everything you need to know about the Canada ETA and how we can assist you every step of the way.

Do Bulgarian citizens need a Canada ETA?

Bulgarian citizens need an ETA, not a visa, to fly to Canada. The Canada ETA allows entry for business, tourism, or transit purposes, eliminating the need for a full visa.

If you plan to travel to Canada by car, train, bus, or boat, you’ll need a Canada Visitor Visa instead. However, if you already hold a valid Canadian visa, you can skip the ETA altogether.

Canada ETA difficulty rating: Easy

With a difficulty rating of just 8/100, the Canada ETA application for Bulgarian citizens is one of the easiest travel authorizations to get. You’ll only need to answer 16 questions, and no additional documents are required, making the process both quick and stress-free.

iVisa pro tip: If you’re traveling through multiple airports, keep in mind that Canadian immigration authorities may ask you a few extra questions about your travel plans. Having a printed itinerary can be handy—especially if you’re connecting in busy hubs. It shows you’re prepared and can save you time during check-in and customs.

What is required to obtain a Canada ETA?

Applying for a Canada ETA is simple, with just a few requirements:

1. A valid passport: Your Bulgarian passport should be valid for at least 6 months beyond your intended stay.

2. An email address: Your ETA will be sent to this address.

3. Payment method: You can pay the ETA fees using a debit or credit card.

How long is the Canada ETA valid for?

The Canada ETA is valid for 5 years or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. This extended validity means you won’t need to reapply each time you travel, making future trips easier and more convenient.

How many entries does the ETA allow, and how long can I stay in Canada?

With the Canada ETA, you’re allowed multiple entries over the validity period, and each stay can be up to 180 days. Whether you’re planning a short visit or an extended stay, this flexibility makes the ETA ideal for Bulgarian travelers who want to explore Canada at their own pace.
