Canadians who wish to visit Bolivia should have a passport which is valid for at least six months beyond the date of expected departure from the country. Upon arrival, all visitors are required to present documentary proof of how they have arranged to depart from Bolivia at the end of their visit. This could be in the form of return airline tickets, E-tickets, etc.

Canadian travelers do not need a visa for tourist purposes, unless they will be staying for more than 30 days. Those who wish to stay for more than 30 days may secure a tourist visa for around US$30. However, this type of visa may only be obtained twice.
Business and student visas are required of all Canadian passport holders to gain entrance to Bolivia for these non-tourist purposes. To get the full information on visa requirements for Canadians, please contact:
