The Canada visitor visa (Visitor Visa / Temporary Resident Visa — TRV) is for tourism, family visits and short business trips. Vietnamese citizens require a visa, applying online via IRCC, with the application pre-reviewed by M2W specialists.
A multiple-entry TRV is usually issued valid for up to 10 years or until the passport expires, with each stay up to 6 months. For parents/grandparents of citizens or permanent residents, the Super Visa allows a longer stay.
