There are some things you cannot bring to Canada or will need to declare when you arrive, such as cash over CAD $10,000 and food or animal products.
Refer to Canada Border Services Agency’s visitors to Canada and restricted and prohibited goods pages for details.
Learn what to do if you plan to travel with your pet(s).
Also, we recommend you bring snacks in case of a long wait upon arrival.
Medication
Keep your medication in your carry-on bag in its original packaging, along with a prescription from the doctor. If you are planning on bringing medication or health products with you, check that the quantity or type is not restricted.
It’s a good idea to bring a copy of your medical records for you and the family members who travel with you. If you have a chronic medical condition, have your doctor write a short medical history, preferably in English, for your new doctor in Vancouver. Bring records including the dates of any immunizations and medical tests you have done.
